The Nanny League•Jackson Hole, WY

About The Position

JACKSON, WY (AND THE WORLD)- Loving, growth-oriented parents (living in two loving, present, and passionate households) seek a FULL-TIME EDUCATOR / NANNY for their 4-year-old son to support his love of learning through play, presence, and curiosity-driven exploration. This role is ideal for an energetic, grounded, emotionally steady educator who genuinely thrives in a dynamic, travel-forward environment and feels resourced by movement, change, and variety. The ideal candidate is comfortable integrating seamlessly across multiple homes and environments and can easily shift spaces while maintaining consistency, warmth, and structure for the child. Rather than following a traditional curriculum, the educator will observe and respond to the child’s natural interests, designing experiential, child-led learning opportunities rooted in play, relationship, and real-world engagement. This is not a classroom teacher role. It is a presence-first, logistics-aware, educator/nanny hybrid requiring initiative, emotional resilience, and joy in the everyday rhythms of care, travel, and learning within a fast-paced, high-engagement family lifestyle.

A private bedroom and bathroom are provided in each location. A valid passport is required. This role requires someone who can lead with clarity and calm, without needing extensive direction or emotional scaffolding from the household, and who can fluidly integrate into different homes, routines, and rhythms with professionalism and ease.
