Program Details

🌿 Program Description – Nanny / Teacher 🌿

This program is for a heart-centered nanny/teacher who wishes to support a conscious family living in an eco villa in the Brazilian jungle. Your main focus is caring for and engaging with our children through play, learning, creativity, routine, and emotional presence.

During retreats and ceremonies at the center, your role is to lovingly hold the children’s space — offering safety, fun, grounding, and consistency. This program is not connected to ceremonies or medicines; clear boundaries allow everyone to feel safe and supported.

You will live close to nature in an eco-conscious environment, share daily life with our family, and become part of a respectful, warm household rhythm. This is a beautiful opportunity for someone who truly loves children, values presence, and feels called to supportive family life rather than retreat facilitation.

Activities & Shift

🌿 Activities & Daily Schedule

Your main responsibility is caring for and engaging with our children in a loving, present way. Activities may include creative play, reading, arts & crafts, outdoor time, simple educational activities, meals, and emotional support.

Typical shifts are around 5–6 hours per day, mainly during retreat and ceremony times, with some flexibility depending on the weekly schedule. When ceremonies are happening, you will be fully focused on the children — creating a calm, safe and joyful space for them.

Free time is respected, and days off are arranged in advance. Clear communication and routine help everyone feel supported.

Rules

🌿 Rules & Boundaries

For the safety of our children and the harmony of our home, we maintain clear boundaries. No drugs, no alcohol, and no substance use are allowed during your stay. This program is not connected to ceremonies, medicines, or spiritual exploration.

We are looking for grounded, responsible people — not ceremony seekers or spiritual tourists. Respect for family life, children’s needs, privacy, and clear roles is essential.

Healthy communication, emotional maturity, and reliability are required. These boundaries help create a safe, stable, and loving environment for everyone 🤍
