Full-Time Family Assistant in South Charlotte for 2 Pre-School Age Boys
Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency is assisting a family in South Charlotte in finding a Full-Time Family Assistant for their 2 preschool-age boys. The nanny would typically be needed Monday-Friday, 45-55 hours.
The best nanny for this family would be responsible, active, organized, kind, and able to balance firm boundaries with warmth and understanding.

The family is seeking someone who can create a nurturing, structured environment while planning daily activities that align with the children’s interests and complement what they are learning in school. Favorite activities include reading, listening to music, building with blocks and Magna-Tiles, imaginative play, outdoor adventures, and active games like chase and running.
The role includes managing school drop-off and pick-up from half-day preschool, and planning fun, educational outings in the community. While the children are in school, the Family Assistant will take on household management tasks (listed below) to support a smoothly running home.
