Nanny or Family Assistant in Rotterdam
Rotterdam is a city that gets things done. Entrepreneurs, professionals in the port and in business, and medical specialists work long and often unpredictable days here. If you also have a family in Kralingen, Hillegersberg or Blijdorp, you know how much needs arranging every day. The Family Assistant already matches Nannies and Family Assistants in Rotterdam: carefully screened professionals who work for one family, from 30 hours a week.
Entrepreneurial Rotterdam: long days and irregular hours
Many parents in Rotterdam run their own business or hold a role in which the diary is rarely fixed. A meeting that overruns, a hospital shift or a business trip does not fit well with the set drop off and pick up times of a day nursery or after school care. A childminder or au pair cannot always offer the flexibility and continuity you need. A Nanny through TFA works for one family, is flexible in days and hours and makes sure everything at home keeps running.
Kralingen and Hillegersberg: family life by the water
Around the Kralingse Plas and the Bergse Plassen live many families whose children love being outdoors. After school they head to the sports club, play in the park or go home with friends. A Nanny supervises, drops off and picks up, and provides a safe and stable environment. At home she keeps daily routines on track, helps with homework and puts a healthy evening meal on the table. Our Nannies hold a childcare related diploma, a first aid certificate for children and babies and extensive experience with children.
A Family Assistant for Rotterdam entrepreneurs
For entrepreneurs, a Family Assistant can be especially valuable. She takes over the organisation of the family, from the family diary and appointments to travel, deliveries and maintenance of the house. She can also take on part of the PA work or administrative tasks for the business. In that case it can be worth employing the Family Assistant through your company. We think along with you and help with payroll, insurance and everything else involved.
How TFA finds your Nanny
Quality, reliability and discretion are our top priorities. This is how the process works:
- An introductory phone call, after which we send you our information and schedule an intake meeting.
- We screen thoroughly: at least two references, a certificate of good conduct (VOG), diplomas and first aid. All candidates complete the TFA Academy.
- Within six weeks of confirming the search, you receive the CVs of suitable candidates.
- TFA schedules the interviews, we evaluate together and you arrange a trial session with your preferred candidate.
- You offer the employment contract; we are happy to help draw it up.
- Evaluations after one week, three weeks, six months and ten months, with coaching where needed.
International Rotterdam
Rotterdam is an international city, and many families raise their children multilingual. Our Nannies and Family Assistants usually speak good English, and we also work with Nannies who speak a second language alongside Dutch. Read more about TFA for expats.
