We are a happy family of 4 looking for a Live-In Au Pair or Nanny/Housekeeper starting at the end of January. We are looking for a smiley, enthusiastic, pro-active, kind and friendly person (very honest and reliable!) who genuinely loves children that will value the role and come to love the family and be part of their life.
