Childcare Professional Wanted
A loving and active French-Italian family is relocating to Zug, Switzerland and seeking a trustworthy nanny to care for their three children aged 4, 5 and 7. The ideal candidate will be able to communicate effectively in German, with a good command of either English, French or Italian. A driving license is essential.
This position involves primarily working weekday afternoons from 2pm to 8pm, totalling 30 hours per week. For those looking to increase hours, there's the option to work weekday mornings (7am–9am) and/or take on additional housekeeping duties, potentially bringing the total up to 40–50 hours per week. The role focuses on childcare, including school pickups, supporting homework in German, preparing vegan meals, and helping with the evening routine. Household tasks will be limited to child-related duties unless more hours are agreed upon.
While both parents work full-time, the children attend a bilingual (German-English) school. The family's home language is French, and they hope the nanny will support their children's German skills.
The role may occasionally involve overnight stays when both parents are away—these will be agreed in advance and compensated separately.
