Role Overview

International Nanny is recruiting a full-time, live-out Nanny & Family Assistant for a family based in Barcelona. This role is ideally suited to an organised, warm, and proactive professional who enjoys combining high-quality childcare with thoughtful family and PA support.

The family’s child attends school full-time. During school hours, the role focuses on child-related organisation, forward planning, and light household support, ensuring that afternoons and evenings unfold smoothly and calmly. After school, the emphasis shifts to attentive, engaged care, with a structured yet relaxed routine that supports the child’s wellbeing, confidence, and development.

This is a stable, long-term position for someone who takes pride in anticipating needs, working discreetly, and becoming a trusted and valued presence within a private household.

• Prepare meals for the child, occasionally for the family, as agreed.
• Keep play areas, kitchen areas used, and the child’s room clean, tidy, and well organised.
• Ensure the home is left neat and tidy at the end of each working day.
• Maintain clear, respectful, and ongoing communication with the parents about the child’s day, progress, and any relevant observations.
