British American Household StaffingJob Description
Overview
- A dynamic, professional, and active nanny/governess is required for a busy expat household in Dubai.
- Following a recent family transition, the mother is seeking a mature, thinking "team-player" to help mentor her three sons, aged 8, 10, and 12 years, into well-mannered, independent young men.
- The ideal candidate has previous experience in the Middle East and understands the nuances of managing life across two households.
- The schedule will be 6-days per week with split shifts: 6:00 AM – 9:00 AM (school run/tidying) and 2:00 PM – 8:30 PM (after-school activities/bedtime).
- On Saturdays and holidays, the candidate would be required to work a full day (starting at 8:00 AM). Flexibility is required to partner with a working mother.
- There are two households; the candidate will be required to manage the transition to the father’s home one night a week. Experience with divorced family dynamics is essential.
- This is a fully staffed household, and the candidate must be a team player. The position is to start as soon as possible.
Responsibilities
- Focus on "life skills," ensuring the children learn to tidy after themselves and develop impeccable manners.
- Provide structure for schoolwork and homework; liaise with schools as needed.
- The eldest son is neurodiverse; the candidate must be able to engage him in high-level discussions regarding his interests (politics, history).
- Be "physical and sporty"—participating in swimming, tennis, and joining in with the boys and their friends.
- Help the children navigate a two-household schedule (mother/father) with sensitivity and professional boundaries.
- Accompany the family on frequent international holidays and business trips.
Qualifications
- The ability to speak Hindi is a bonus
- A valid driver's license is a plus for personal independence.
Requirements
- British or European passport holders (the family travels regularly)
- A native-level command of English.
- Proven experience working in the Middle East
- Prior experience managing dual-household dynamics is mandatory.
- Bubbly, high-energy, and mature. You must be able to "read a room" and set firm but fair boundaries with the children, offering emotional maturity
- Encourage and join in with the children's activities - tennis, karate, swimming, etc.
- Must be comfortable with a Siberian cat.
Salary and Benefits
- AED 25,000 - 30,000 per month (depending on experience)
- 6-day working week
