On behalf of our Swiss partner A warm, busy family based in Zürich is seeking an au pair or nanny to support their two children, aged 6 and 4. The eldest attends primary school, while the youngest will begin kindergarten in August. Both children enjoy creative play and outdoor activities, and the role would suit someone active and engaging who genuinely enjoys spending time with children.
The position involves morning support with getting ready for school and light tidying related to the children, followed by afternoon care. Occasional evening babysitting or weekend hours may be required. Duties include child related household tasks, some family errands, laundry and cooking for or with the children. Additional hours may be available for candidates open to increased responsibilities.
The family is looking for a kind, positive and responsible individual who communicates well and can provide consistent, supportive care. Accommodation is provided in a private studio with separate entrance. A driving licence is beneficial but not essential. Basic German is helpful, or a willingness to learn quickly.
