About the Family
A warm NYC family is looking for an energetic, reliable nanny to join their team! Their sweet 10-month-old boy is the main focus of this role… he’s a big, busy guy (already 25 lbs!) who’s on the move and getting into everything, so being energetic and up for running around with a toddler is a must.
Mom will be out and about with their 4 year old often, who is also in school full days, but you’ll want to be comfortable jumping in to help with her from time to time, especially on school closure days. Everything is walkable from their home, so your days will be full of playground trips, stroller walks, songs, books, and lots of hands-on engagement.
This family values teamwork. They’re looking for someone who shows up on time, communicates openly, speaks up when they need something, and partners with the parents as a unified team. If you’re great at setting and holding healthy boundaries with little ones (with plenty of warmth!), this could be a wonderful fit.
