What are the responsibilities and job description for the KP807 - 2 x Long-Term Mandarin-Speaking ROTA NCSs - Las Vegas, NV position at British American Household Staffing?
Overview
A single parent family located in Las Vegas is seeking two highly experienced Mandarin-speaking Newborn Care Specialists to support the family from their first child's birth through at least the first year, starting in December 2027. Since a daily 4-hour break cannot be reliably provided, the candidates will work a 7 day on/7 day off ROTA schedule, providing continuous 24/7 support while on duty.
The baby will be born in Palo Alto, California, where the family will remain for approximately the first eight weeks postpartum before returning to their primary residence in Las Vegas. The family anticipates spending the majority of 2028 in Las Vegas, before gradually spending more time in the South Bay area (likely Palo Alto/Cupertino) in the years that follow.
The term will be a minimum of 12 months, with the option to either extend or provide a comprehensive handover to a ROTA nanny team.
The family is seeking exceptionally seasoned professionals who are capable of providing guidance and reassurance, while confidently taking the lead/initiative and making informed, best-practice decisions on the parent’s behalf. Establishing healthy sleep and feeding routines will be a key priority, along with exposing baby to Mandarin, and offering general newborn education and support during this exciting transition into parenthood.
Fly-in, fly-out is available to the successful candidates (i.e. candidates do not need to reside locally to the family).
