Our professional international clients in Monaco seek a new native English-speaking Nanny for their two children, aged 7.5 (girl) and 4.5 (boy). This role offers the chance to join a dynamic household team, beginning at the earliest convenience of the candidate. While primarily based in Monaco, the position involves international travel during school holidays. The ideal candidate must be flexible, organized, proactive, and experienced with school-age.

Bermuda + Extensive Travel: Norland trained ‘Rota’ (2 weeks on/off) Nanny✨
-
Long-standing private clients of ours, who have worked with us since the birth of their first child, are seeking a new, permanent ‘Rota’ Nanny to work on a 2 weeks on/off schedule with our other NSJ Norland-trained Nanny. This role is to provide full care for their 2 children (B10 & G8 years), who attend the same school, with both nannies working to a very organised, pre-planned rota.
-
The new nanny must be a good communicator; and professional nanny training is highly desired (our clients do favour the Norland training). This would suit a well-presented, highly organised & motivated candidate, with lots of energy/drive and who would enjoy an overseas position for a formal UK family with lots of travel back to London and Europe in the holidays. An EEC/UK passport is essential, as well as someone with at least 8 years’ professional experience (including within fully staffed households) and who has worked overseas before.
-
The family require a confident driver, with a car provided for the nannies’ use. In Bermuda, the nannies will also share a two-bedroomed separate apartment for their time off, with full-time use of their own bedroom. The new nanny should naturally understand how "island life" works and be proactive in planning and implementing local activities for the children – as they have a wide range of friends at present and love to explore the island outside of school!
-
Although the family’s primary base is Bermuda, they also travel and spend time at their homes in London, Switzerland and Jamaica, so the new nanny should be used to travelling with children on both planes and yachts. Previous experience working for a busy travelling family helpful and good sea legs essential!
-
An incredible opportunity and top salary package available for the right candidate. The nanny should be Norland-trained (our clients request), well-presented and extremely discrete with an articulate, professional outlook. With interviews now taking place for a September start, please call us on 0207 610 9218 for more details or email through your CV to [email protected]
