About The Position

A wonderful family in Dorado Beach, Puerto Rico, is seeking a FULL-TIME LIVE-OUT NANNY to join their household and care for their three bright and inquisitive children: a 5-year-old boy, an 8-year-old girl, and a 9-year-old boy. The family is looking for a calm, confident, and emotionally grounded nanny—someone who is safety-conscious, exceptionally patient, and able to command respect while remaining warm, friendly, and approachable. Experience working with children with differing needs and/or an occupational therapy (OT) background is highly valued. The role primarily centers around their 5-year-old, but their 8-year-old daughter is super athletic and they would love to have someone who can actively keep up with her! This is a live-out position based in the beautiful Dorado Beach community of Puerto Rico. A housing stipend is available for the right candidate relocating to the area. Flexibility is essential due to the father's variable travel schedule. While overnight care will not be required every time Dad travels, there may be occasions when Mom has evening commitments and would need the nanny to stay overnight while Dad is away. The family is seeking a candidate who is comfortable providing occasional overnight support as needed. The hours are 12:00 PM–8:00 PM, Monday through Friday, guaranteeing 40 hours per week, with some flexibility. The nanny will assist with running errands, light housekeeping, children's laundry, meal preparation, and household organization; walking the family's two small dogs is preferred but not required. In the afternoons and evenings, the nanny will partner with Mom to manage school pick-ups, after-school activities, homework support, and evening routines, including dinner, bath time, and bedtime. The family is eager to welcome a long-term caregiver as an extension of their family. Travel is required, including annual trips to Connecticut for Thanksgiving and travel to Europe during Christmas vacation and Spring Break. The ideal candidate will be passport-ready and enthusiastic about traveling alongside the family. Parents occasionally travel independently for weekend getaways, during which time the nanny would remain with the children and provide full childcare coverage, including overnights. Trips are typically no longer than one week. The household includes two small, friendly King Charles Cavaliers, so comfort around dogs is essential. The family is seeking a warm, engaging, steady, and adaptable nanny who is attentive, fully present, and not distracted by their phone while caring for the children. The ideal candidate is patient, confident, and emotionally intuitive—someone who can set boundaries, remain calm under pressure, and foster a respectful, structured environment while still being friendly and approachable. The family anticipates relocating back to Connecticut in 2028 and would ideally love for the right person to transition with them.
