Household Dynamic:
This warm, engaging family is seeking a dedicated, proactive, and flexible live-in nanny to join them on their journey. Both parents are physicians working on rotating contracts, so the family moves approximately every 9–12 months, typically between Illinois and Florida. The nanny will play a consistent and grounding role in the lives of two young children as they grow—wherever the family lands next, as well as their Siberian Husky dog. 

Currently based in Naperville, IL, the family’s permanent residence is in St. Petersburg, FL, and upcoming assignments may involve additional domestic travel. This is a unique opportunity for a travel-ready caregiver who thrives in dynamic environments and is eager to build a long-term relationship with a thoughtful, communicative household.

Ideal Candidate:
The ideal candidate is conscientious, collaborative, and proactive—someone who thrives in dynamic environments and values early childhood development. A flexible, team-oriented attitude is essential, along with a genuine passion for supporting children through their developmental stages. Grit, emotional maturity, and strong communication skills are key in this evolving household.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Provide attentive and developmentally appropriate care to a 2-year-old and an infant

• Plan and implement educational and milestone-driven activities

• Light tidying of common areas and children's spaces

• Family laundry and kitchen tidying
