About the Family

A warm and welcoming family of five living on the Upper West Side of Manhattan is seeking an experienced and proactive Nanny to join their household. The family includes three children: an 8-year-old girl, a 5-year-old boy, and a 2-year-old girl. The two older children are in school full-time, while the youngest attends school three mornings a week for two hours.

This is a long-term role, with the nanny becoming an important and trusted member of the family team.

Children

  • 8 years old (G), 5 years old (B), and 2 years old (G – primary care will be for her)

Responsibilities

  • Manage the morning routine: preparing breakfast, getting the children dressed, and organizing school bags.

  • Provide primary care for the toddler, including attending classes, park outings, and playdates.

  • While the toddler is at school or napping, handle light child-related housekeeping, including:

    • Tidying children’s rooms and play areas

    • Children’s laundry and making their beds

    • Prepping healthy snacks and simple family meals, including lunches for the kids

  • Family also has an after-school childcare provider for the older children, but may need assistance supporting the older children after school as needed, depending on family schedules.

  • Occasionally assist with evenings or weekends when required.

  • Travel with the family, particularly during summers in the Hamptons.

Ideal Candidate & Personality

The ideal nanny is:

  • Instinctual and proactive, anticipating needs (refreshing water bottles, packing backpacks, preparing ahead for the next day).

  • Engaging and nurturing, genuinely loves children, and creates age-appropriate activities.

  • Thoughtful and adaptable, tuned in to each child’s personality and preferences (picky eaters vs. better eaters).

  • Warm, communicative, and easy to be around, someone the whole family enjoys having at home.

  • Knowledgeable about New York City, especially the UWS—familiar with parks, activities, and navigating with children.

  • A safe, confident driver (preferred) to support family travel and driving in the Hamptons.

Requirements

  • Minimum 5 years of professional nanny experience

  • Strong references from recent long-term positions

  • Legal to work in the United States

  • Fluent in English with excellent communication skills

  • Flexibility to travel, especially to the Hamptons in the summer

Compensation & Benefits

  • $35–$40/hour, depending on experience, negotiable for the right candidate

  • 2 weeks paid time off

  • Paid holidays

  • A warm, respectful, and supportive work environment
