Our client is seeking an experienced, warm, and easygoing Temporary Daytime Nanny to provide dedicated care for their infant son in Nassau, Bahamas, from October 5 through December 1, 2026. This is a wonderful short-term opportunity for a professional Nanny with significant infant experience who is available to spend approximately two months in the Bahamas and can commit to the full assignment.
The family is looking for someone who is calm, grounded, and genuinely enjoys caring for babies. Strong infant experience is essential, but personality and overall fit are equally important.

This is currently a temporary assignment; however, there is potential for the position to develop into a longer-term opportunity if the arrangement is a great fit for both the family and Nanny
