Family's Introduction to Nanny

ABOUT US

Hello! We are a friendly, energetic, athletic, world-travelled Turkish-American family living about 20-40 minutes outside of Istanbul (depending on traffic!).

We live in Kemer Country, in a lovely home deep in the quiet Belgrade forest. We have a bright, chatty, loving and busy 6 year old daughter who has many hobbies.

We all enjoy cooking, traveling and the outdoors - and practice RIE parenting and positive discipline. We love raising our daughter and welcome a like-minded individual to support us as she grows.

Job Description

** the position is currently filled **

SEEKING

A friendly nanny-housekeeper who has experience with younger children to join our family in a long-term, preferably 6-day a week, live-in position. We’d love a candidate looking to settle in with a family for several years.

ABOUT THE HOUSEHOLD

We have an all-around helper/cook who takes care of shopping and has been with the family 25 years, a gardener and housekeeper couple who live on the premises full time in a separate house, and my husband has his own PA/driver; I drive myself.
We predominately speak English in the household between us (mother and father) but welcome a candidate who will also share their mother tongue with the child, particularly if it is Spanish. Our cook has limited English but has always been able to communicate well with our English-speaking staff over the years.

We have a few outdoor (guard) dogs that are tended by the gardener and two indoor family pets, extremely friendly and sweet Boston Terriers, who require feeding and letting out from time to time (a responsibility we all share).

Our nanny has a private, dedicated bedroom with TV and bathroom next door to our child's room, as well as access to the home's pool and nearby club facilities. We have excellent internet service and will provide a local tel.

The forest setting we live in is very family friendly and neighborhood-oriented, with many expats and international families. Very unique for Istanbul.

WHAT WE ARE SEEKING

We are seeking individuals who are honest, energetic, independent, resourceful, have the ability to be self-sufficient, and bring a positive attitude and strength in character.

We absolutely welcome this individual as a member of the family and are warm, open and friendly with everyone in our employ. We value individuals with a true commitment to their role.

We envision this person as a mother's companion and assistant, a second set of loving hands to share in the care and growth of our little girl.

Our daughter is almost entirely screen-free, so a candidate who loves spending time creatively and actively with children is a must. We live in the forest so a person who is active and loves the outdoors, gardening in the summer, swimming, yoga, etc will be right at home with us!

ABOUT THE ROLE

Our daughter now goes to school full-time. I am a hands-on mother, but am seeking someone to help with early morning, afternoons and evenings, things such as getting ready for school, meal prep and keeping up after our daughter (belongings, laundry, etc), accompanying her in her outdoor explorations etc.

Housekeeping duties include support to the main housekeeper while our daughter is at school, especially responsibility for our daughter's laundry and her room’s general upkeep — but our daughter also is expected to actively participate in the care of her room and belongings.

We view the household as a team effort and all employees are expected to support one another as needed so a team player is essential.

A confident and licensed driver would be wonderful but not required. We are flexible on vacation/time off and open to discussing on an individual basis and understand that sometimes sudden needs arise.

TRAVEL

We love skiing and spending time at sea, and take at least one annual trip to do both (spring skiing and July/August boat trip). Our own yacht is under renovation and we anticipate spending 2-3 week-long stretches at sea in the Med during the summers initially, and ultimately around the world at different points in the year in the coming years. As such, we would like a candidate open to spending durations of time on a boat who is a confident swimmer.

We do anticipate that this individual will join us on family trips. Trips to the US, the Far East and throughout Europe and the Middle East are common. As such, a Schengen Visa and/or US Visa holder would be wonderful but we would also assist in the application and paperwork required.

Finally, it is also anticipated that this individual will periodically stay at home with our daughter as the sole caretaker while we the parents are away.
