Nanny

We are a family of physicians living in Vancouver, British Columbia, seeking a responsible, caring, and experienced full-time Nanny to provide in-home care for our newborn infant and 2-year-old child. As medical professionals, our schedules can be demanding and occasionally unpredictable. We are therefore looking for a highly reliable, attentive, and nurturing individual who can independently manage the day-to-day care of both an infant and a toddler. The ideal candidate will maintain a safe, organized, and emotionally supportive home environment, while following established routines and responding thoughtfully to our children’s changing needs. We value patience, sound judgment, and clear communication. Regular updates, consistency in care, and mutual trust are important to us, as they contribute to stability and a sense of security for our children. We are seeking someone who understands the importance of early childhood development and approaches this role with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. If you are committed to providing a calm, nurturing, and safe environment where young children can grow and thrive, we would be pleased to consider your application.
