About the Family:

A thoughtful, family-oriented household in Leesburg, Virginia is seeking a warm, engaging, and detail-oriented full-time nanny to care for their two children, ages 3 years and 3 months. This is a wonderful opportunity to join a family that values connection-based care, developmental support, and a nurturing, screen-free environment.
