Overview
A warm, kind family on the Upper East Side is seeking a passionate live-out career nanny for their 2 year-old (g) and 4 year-old (b). Both parents have demanding, full-time careers, and the schedule will be Monday through Friday, from 8am to 6pm. Candidates will be required to stay late at least a few times per month to accommodate work functions or other, so flexibility is key. There will be (mostly) domestic travel each year and the family spend August in the Hamptons. Candidates will be able to travel home on weekends during this time and will be compensated accordingly for being away from home on all other days. The family do travel to Australia for 2-3 weeks every other year, but the nanny will not be required to join them.
