Description
WASHINGTON DC, USA: - Daily, Home School Teacher - **USA passport or Green card essential** $$$$$$
We are seeking an exceptional, creative, and highly adaptable, Daily Home School Teacher to join a fully staffed private household team, supporting the education of twins, 4.5 years.
This role is ideal for an experienced educator with a strong background in home schooling and a passion for a child-led, exploratory approach to learning—similar in spirit to progressive, curiosity-driven models such as the Ad Astra style of education.
The successful candidate will work alongside rota nanny/governesses to deliver a personalised, engaging, and hands-on learning experience tailored to each child’s pace, interests, and developmental needs.
Key Features of the Role:
- Home-based, travel-integrated education model.
- Collaboration with an established rota childcare team.
- Extensive travel, including time across Europe and residences within the United States on both East and West Coast.
- Opportunity to design and implement a dynamic, activity-based curriculum.
Educational Approach:
We are looking for someone who embraces a broad, “Atlas-style” approach to learning—prioritising curiosity, independence, and real-world exploration. Teaching should be rooted in hands-on experiences and practical discovery. For example, introducing early STEM concepts through everyday activities (e.g., experimenting with toy cars on different surfaces to explore friction), encouraging critical thinking, problem-solving, and a genuine love of learning.
The ideal candidate will:
- Have proven experience in home schooling or alternative education environments.
- Be confident delivering informal yet structured, child-led learning.
- Be flexible, proactive, and collaborative within a private household setting.
- Be comfortable with frequent travel and adapting routines across locations.
- Bring warmth, creativity, and intellectual curiosity to the role.
Requirements
- USA passport or Green Card (essential).
- Availability to start by mid-summer.
- Willingness to travel extensively and spend extended periods abroad.
This is a unique opportunity for an educator who values freedom, creativity, and experiential learning, and who is excited to help shape an enriching, global childhood experience.
To apply, please get in touch with your CV and a brief overview of your educational philosophy and relevant experience. Info@nanniesofstjames.com, Tel: 0044 (0) 207 610 9218
