Part-Time English-Speaking Nanny / Play Companion in Quy Nhơn

We are a private family living in the TMS Quy Nhơn area looking for a kind, reliable female nanny or university student to care for and actively engage with our 2.5-year-old son.

This is a long-term position, potentially for one to two years while our family is living in Quy Nhơn. We are looking for someone interested in stable, ongoing work who can build a trusting relationship with our child and remain with the family as he grows. Continuity is very important to us.

The main purpose of the role is active play, everyday interaction and natural exposure to English. This is not a formal teaching position and not passive supervision.

IMPORTANT CHILDCARE RULES
- During working hours, the child must receive the nanny's full attention. Personal phone use, social media, videos and unrelated messaging are not allowed, except in an emergency or for necessary communication with the family.
- This is an active-care role: the nanny is expected to play, talk, read, sing, walk and interact with the child.
- The child must never be left unattended or placed in another person's care without the family's permission.
