Family's Message to Au Pair or Nanny
We are looking for someone that would like to be part of our family and treat us and our baby as though we were family. We are flexible and there may be days that there is not much to do at all but sit by the pool. We are not apposed to even having a husband and wife team apply if all their all children are grown up and on their own or old enough to look after themselves. We do have a company that will supply an outside job. We don't expect you to work everyday and days you want off to go somewhere we have no problem working with you. You have to be understanding and flexiable because our schedule can be very erratic and can change very quickly. You will be traveling a lot on business and vacations where job expectations will change due to circumstance. We are looking for someone that would like to be part of our family more than just looking for a job. You will be with my Husband and I and our new born a great deal of time. My husband works very long hours and I will only work part time starting in the fall and plan to have one more child next year but I do need the flexiability to leave when needed to tend to our business. We are looking to have someone long term that doesn't mind traveling and living in other countries for extended periods of time. We are usually in Europe as much as we are in California.
