Overview
A warm, kind family based in Brooklyn, NYC, is seeking a full-time nanny/Mother’s helper for their 4-year-old, starting ASAP. There is also a 15-year-old but they are very independent. The schedule will be 5 days per week, as follows: Mondays and Fridays from 8:30am-6:30pm, then Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 10am- 7pm.
Responsibilities
- The toddler is in a program from 9am-2pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays and candidates should be willing to do some light house cleaning (e.g. cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast, emptying the trash etc. - absolutely no deep cleaning), as well as meal prep and grocery shopping during this time
- The primary focus will always be the care and well-being of the toddler, and candidates need only keep tabs on the 15-year-old
- One parent works in an industry that means they have to pivot sometimes, so flexibility is appreciated
- Domestic and international travel are both possible, so candidates should be passport ready.
Qualifications
- The family are ideally seeking longevity in previous roles and a want to commit in a long-term capacity and become part of the family
- Sterling and verifiable references
- 8+ years’ experience
- Candidates must be CPR certified
Requirements
- Candidates should be comfortable tag-teaming with mom and pitching-in wherever required- e.g. if the toddler is clingy one day and doesn’t want to leave mom’s side, then the candidate should pro-actively jump into something else, like putting a load of washing on, or doing a grocery shop. There is a housekeeper so no deep cleaning will ever be required.
- The family have a dog, so candidates should be pet friendly and willing to let him outside/feed him if this is overlooked for whatever reason.
- US passport, Green Card or EAC
- Passport ready and willing to travel domestically and internationally
- The ability to drive is helpful, but not essential
- The family have requested that all candidates be non-smokers
- Available to start ASAP
Salary and Benefits
