Long-term, Full-time, Spanish-speaking Nanny-Mother's help in Castelldefels

Details of the assignment
An international family based in Castelldefels, Spain, is actively seeking a nanny-mother's help to care for their 4-year-old and another baby expected this February. Although not mandatory, they prefer a nanny who can ideally speak Spanish and is also fluent in English. The nanny will work five days a week: three weekdays and two weekends, covering full-time hours. The family is open to both live-in and live-out arrangements, but if the nanny opts for live-out, arranging reliable transportation for daily commuting is essential.
The family is easygoing, friendly, and open-minded. Both parents work, with the dad often travelling while the mum primarily works from home. Despite being hands-on parents, the family seeks someone who can serve as an excellent childcare partner to Mum, providing additional support, especially when Dad is travelling and not around. As a mother's help, they expect someone who can ease the mother's daily life, whether it's tidying up the nursery, assisting with dinner, or running errands. They already have a cleaner for the house.
The family places a big importance on routine, so they need a nanny capable of implementing and maintaining a consistent everyday routine for the kids. In parenting, they adopt a loving and understanding approach, encouraging independence and patiently explaining the reasons behind rules if any. The ideal candidate is passionate about childcare, demonstrating genuine love and interest in the job. The family seeks a positive, happy, and energetic nanny who can create a good bond with the kids through creativity, fun, and playfulness. The nanny should be a positive influence and role model, instilling good manners and behaviour.
The family wants a responsible nanny who can be a part of the family while maintaining a professional demeanor. Since they are looking for a long-term commitment, compatibility in personality is important. The ideal candidate possesses strong communication skills, takes initiative, works well with minimal supervision, and is open to constructive feedback. This role is perfect for a professional and career nanny with experience as a mother's help, seeking a long-term commitment with a wonderful family.
Requirements:
- Previous experience as a nanny and/or a mother's help
- Relevant working experience with kids in similar age group
- Confident swimmer
- Travel ready
- Cooking (Desirable)
- Driving licence (Desirable)
- Local to Castelldefels or able to commute daily
