About the Family

A warm, kind, and welcoming private family located in Middletown, Rhode Island is seeking a dedicated, professional, and long-term Nanny / Housekeeper to support their growing household. The family values kindness, communication, reliability, and mutual respect, and is looking for someone who truly enjoys being part of a family environment.

Children:

  • One child, age 3

  • One infant, 4.5 months

  • Plans to have a third child within the next two years

The ideal candidate must be comfortable caring for both infants and toddlers.

Home:

  • Currently a 3-bedroom home (~2,000 sq ft)

  • Planning to move to a farmhouse in about one year (similar size)

Pets & Animals:
The family currently has pets and plans to expand over time to include animals such as chickens, pigs, horses, cows, dogs, and geckos. The candidate must be very comfortable around animals.


Position Overview & Responsibilities

This role is a true nanny/housekeeper hybrid, including childcare, organization, and full housekeeping for their 2,000 sq ft home.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Providing attentive, nurturing care for two young children

  • Supporting developmental play, routines, and daily structure

  • Daily laundry and dishes

  • General housekeeping and tidying

  • Strong organizational support (maintaining systems, not just cleaning)

  • Keeping children’s areas neat and well-organized
  • Full housekeeping for their 3 bed, 2 bath home
  • Occasional help with light cooking and household errands (mail, dry cleaning, post office, etc.)

The family places a high value on organization—they are seeking someone who is thoughtful about systems, consistency, and keeping the home orderly in a meaningful, sustainable way.

During future summers (possibly starting summer 2026), the family may spend time in California or elsewhere. During those periods, the role would shift more toward full-time housekeeping, organization, and property care with no childcare during those periods of time.


Ideal Candidate & Personality

The ideal candidate is:

  • Warm, patient, kind, and genuinely enjoys children

  • Organized, hardworking, and reliable

  • Easy-going yet professional

  • More extroverted and able to carry a conversation naturally

  • Comfortable becoming a trusted, long-term presence in the household

  • Motivated by doing meaningful work

  • Comfortable with animals and an evolving household

The family is looking for a true team player—someone who wants to grow with them over time and become a valued part of their lives.


Experience Preferences

  • Nanny experience and strong childcare instincts and organizational ability are prioritized

  • Formal housekeeping experience is helpful, but not required

  • The family’s previous nanny/housekeeper stayed for two years and would have stayed long-term if they hadn’t moved—they are hoping to find that same type of lasting fit again


Requirements

  • Excellent references

  • Comfortable with infants and toddlers

  • Driver’s license required

  • Car available for use on the job

  • Comfortable with pets and animals

  • Willing to commit to a long-term role


Compensation & Benefits

  • $30–$40/hour, depending on experience and fit

  • 40 hours guaranteed

  • 2 weeks paid vacation

  • 3–5 sick days

  • Paid major holidays
