Paris 16th | English-Speaking Nanny | Immediate / Flexible Start

A French-speaking family living in the 16th arrondissement of Paris is looking for a weekend English-speaking nanny to support them in raising their almost 9-year-old twins, who have been attending Franklin since kindergarten.

Both parents hold demanding positions and require full coverage during weekends.

The family currently employs two French-speaking nannies. One has been with the family since the children’s birth and will continue to work during the week. The second nanny takes care of the children over long weekends and has been with the family for 3 years. She will soon be leaving her position for personal reasons, so the family wishes to begin interviews as soon as possible to replace her.

The children have limited knowledge of English, and the family would like to address this by hiring an English-speaking nanny, ideally bilingual or with a good level of French, who can support them in learning English.
There will be no French homework to do with the children. A tutor comes twice a week.

The nanny will work as follows: she will start at 4:30 pm on Thursday at school pick-up and will work until Monday morning at 8:30 am, when she will drop the children off at school.

During the night, she will be on call and will stay at the family home. A bedroom is available for her on the upper floor.

If the nanny does not have accommodation in Paris, the family is willing to provide a studio room during the week.

During her working hours, the nanny will be responsible for the children’s safety and well-being, as well as accompanying them to their various activities. On Saturdays, one child does dance while the other has chess and football. On Sundays, the whole family plays tennis. Meals are taken at home or at restaurants together. The nanny will prepare the children’s meals or reheat what the housekeeper has prepared. It would be appreciated if she could do the same for the parents.

The family is looking for a nanny who is kind and caring with the children, who “are not always angels.” The parents describe themselves as “very family-oriented,” and the staff are very attached to the family.

Exceptionally, if the nanny needs a day off during the weekend for personal reasons, the family will be flexible in arranging cover.

Please note that only native English-speaking candidates with a European passport or already holding the right to work in France will be considered.
