Lifestyle What the CEO mother's viral ad for a nanny says about our notion of motherhood | Vogue India
pinky barot 210 1885 days ago A CEO and a single parent from Silicon Valley recently had everybody’s attention with her advert for a nanny for her twin children. The now-deleted ad states that she already has a housekeeper, a gardener, an au pair and a property manager. Her expectations of this super nanny are that along with having a high IQ, being kind and efficient, she must also be a good strategist, know how to cook organic foods, plan camps, vacation and after-school activities. So far so good, but then it gets more specific. The ad asks that she must be able to read articles about eating beef and increases in breast cancer and can understand this information at a summary, correspond politely with parents of other children. Should be able to swim in a river, no less, body surf, ski and drive internationally and also know calisthenics.
