Live-in Nanny/Housekeeper - MUST have right to work in France. Divonne-les-Bains is a French spa town located on the Swiss border, just a 15-minute drive (approximately 15 kilometres) north of Geneva Airport.

A lovely family, currently in Belgium and relocating to France this December, is looking for a special person to join their household as a Live-in Nanny / Housekeeper for their 8-month-old son. This is a wonderful opportunity to become a true part of family life, the role blends hands-on childcare with home management, roughly 50/50, though every day brings its own rhythm.

The home is calm, relaxed, and lovingly cared for, with a much-loved family dog completing the household. More than any specific qualification, the family is looking for the right spirit: someone warm, happy, energetic, and naturally proactive: a person who takes pride in doing things well and thrives with independence rather than instruction.

The family would love the right candidate to join them during their remaining time in Belgium, but this is optional – if it isn’t feasible, candidates are very welcome to join once the family has settled in France.
