Overview
A loving and active father–daughter duo in Miami Beach is seeking a smart, creative, and flexible nanny for a 6-year-old girl. The home is energetic, fun, and respectful, with clear routines and boundaries. Their daughter is imaginative and loves music, art, and creative play. The family maintains a no-screen policy and values hands-on engagement and structure.
The child splits her time between her mother’s and father’s homes. The father works from home and values privacy—so the right nanny will intuitively know how to support while giving the family space. Professionalism and discretion are essential. The household also includes long-term staff and one very friendly Goldendoodle.
A strong preference will be given to candidates with a degree in psychology or early childhood education. Portuguese-speaking candidates are a plus. Relocation is offered for exceptional candidates.
Start Date: September
Schedule:The child follows a 2-2-3 custody schedule:
Monday & Tuesday – With Dad
Wednesday & Thursday – With Mom

Mondays & Tuesdays: Afternoon school pickup, care through the evening, and overnight coverage if Dad is out.

Alternating Weekends (Friday–Monday): School pickup Friday afternoon, care through the weekend, and drop-off at school Monday morning.
