  Req#: 20815

  Overview

  A high-profile family based on the Upper East Side are seeking a flexible full-time nanny for their 2 children, aged 11 and 13 years. The schedule will require a vast amount of flexibility on the part of the candidate, but days and hours will generally be every Monday and Tuesday, alternating Thursdays and Fridays and then either a Saturday or a Sunday. Hours will typically be 2:30pm-6:30/7pm on these days and the family will guarantee a minimum of 40 hours per week - more if candidates require this. There will be roughly 1-2 weeks of travel required in the Summer and Winter seasons, as well as overnights in the City. Mom's work hours are likely to shift around depending on her schedule. This is a role of regimented schedules as well as flexibility due to mom’s changing work/travel schedule

  Responsibilities

  • Some homework help (what doesn't get done during tutoring)
  • Accompanying to activities
  • Assist with skill-building (chores, independent activities)
  • Support routines
  • Team player mentality - this is a semi-staffed home and the candidate will work with other staff that care for and support the girls
  • Pivoting and adapting in a changing environment while still being able to keep routines going with girls
  • There is a full-time chef so no cooking is required

  Qualifications

  • Candidates must be confident role models and team-players, ideally with a background in Special Education or experience of behavior/boundary management, and the ability to deliberately, consistently, and respectfully instill discipline, etiquette, and manners.
  • This is a predominately tech free home (children have Apple Watches but no phones) with rules of boundaries, good behavior, and consequences if chores/homework is not done.
  • The home requires strength and playfulness all at the same time

  Requirements

  • US passport, Green Card or EAC
  • Passport ready and willing to travel, if required (sometimes spontaneously)
  • Available to start mid-August
  • Must be comfortable with a dog, 4 cats, a snake, and a lizard, but these will not be the nanny's responsibility
  • A driver’s license is ideal but is not essential

  Salary and Benefits

  • $40-$45 per hour DOE + all industry standard benefits (overtime after 40 hours/ PTO/ sick days/ Federal holidays)
