Cambridge Full Time Nanny/Educator (40 hours/week) ASAP Start

An education-focused family in Porter Square is searching for a full time nanny/educator to begin as soon as the right match is found. They have two children, ages 4 and 10 months. The older child is in a program during the school year. The schedule for this position is M-F 9am-5pm for a guarantee of 40 hours/week. Care will be focused primarily on the baby. The older child will be home in the afternoons and on no-school days. Responsibilities include lesson planning, providing enriching, developmentally appropriate, curriculum-based activities, fostering creativity and independence, spending time outdoors, and maintaining a consistent, healthy routine. As time allows, additional duties include heating up children's meals, children's laundry, and keeping play areas and bedrooms organized and tidy. Seasoned, creative educators who find great joy in providing daily learning opportunities will thrive in this position. This role is ideal for candidates looking for a long-term opportunity to make a meaningful impact on a family's daily life by nurturing both children, encouraging exploration and learning, and fostering a love of discovery. A bachelor's degree or higher in a child-related field, Montessori training, and/or extensive prior teaching experience with these age groups is required. Optional travel opportunities are available. Both parents spend about half the time working in a closed office space. Mom may be in and around the home at times.
