Position Overview A family in Wayland, MA is seeking a reliable, organized, and creative Nanny / Household Assistant for a full-time, long-term, live-out position caring for three school-age children, ages 8, 10, and 12. The role is split into two parts. The first part of each shift focuses on household support, including dishes, laundry, errands, and home organization.

The children arrive home between 2:40 and 3:40 PM, with early release on Wednesdays and Fridays. This is a collaborative role working closely with Mom, and a cleaning team also comes to the home.

There are three small dogs in the home, but no pet care is required. The family travels during school vacation weeks, and traveling with them is optional.
