Overview
ASPEN, CO (NATIONWIDE SEARCH) - A warm, active family in downtown Aspen is seeking an experienced FULL-TIME NANNY / HOUSEHOLD MANAGER to care for their delightful 2.5-year-old son in a long-term role. The family is expecting their second child in the fall, and the primary focus of this position will remain centered on their son while also providing supportive assistance to the household as the family grows. This is an excellent opportunity for a professional nanny who enjoys an outdoor lifestyle, thrives in a structured yet relaxed home environment, and is eager to become a trusted, long-term member of the family’s team.
The family ideally prefers a schedule of five days per week, Wednesday through Sunday, with Monday and Tuesday off, though they are open to some flexibility depending on the candidate’s preference. The position guarantees 40 hours per week. On days when the child attends school (three days per week), typical hours are 10/11 AM to 6 PM. On non-school days, when childcare is the primary focus, the schedule typically begins around 8:00–8:30 AM and ends around 4:30 PM. The parents appreciate a nanny who is interactive and engaged, someone who actively plays with their son, takes him outdoors, and creates meaningful learning and play experiences rather than simply supervising.
The role includes a blend of childcare and light household support. The family employs additional support through their family office, so responsibilities remain focused primarily on the child and maintaining a smooth daily household rhythm. Duties may include loading the dishwasher, completing family laundry, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up dry cleaning, and maintaining organization throughout the home. These responsibilities generally take place while the child is at school or resting.
The family lives in downtown Aspen and values an active lifestyle. While skiing is not required, candidates should enjoy spending time outdoors and be comfortable hiking, exploring parks, and participating in outdoor activities with the child. The toddler enjoys engaging play, outings, and time outside.
Travel occurs approximately 5–10 times per year, and the nanny will be expected to accompany the family on many of these trips. A valid passport is required. When traveling with the family, the nanny will receive a $100 per day travel stipend in addition to regular compensation.
The family is offering a salary of approximately $100,000 annually, with room for growth over time. Full health coverage is provided through the family office. Housing support is also available for non-local candidates. The family has secured a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment (approximately 640 sq ft) located just minutes from the home, offered at below-market rent. The apartment typically rents between $6,000+ per month in Aspen, but the family will subsidize the housing significantly. Alternatively, local candidates may receive a housing stipend.
The ideal candidate is warm, trustworthy, active, and highly engaged with young children. They should be comfortable working alongside parents, respectful of household privacy, and capable of taking initiative to support the family’s day-to-day needs. Strong references, a clean background, and the ability to maintain excellent professional boundaries are essential.
The family is hoping to hire as soon as possible and would like to conduct a 2–3 week working trial to ensure the role is a strong mutual fit. This is a wonderful opportunity for a career nanny who would enjoy living and working in Aspen while supporting a kind family and an energetic young child in a beautiful mountain environment.
