Overview
First-time parents of a son born mid-January 2026 are seeking a wonderful, loving, engaging, and professional live-out nanny. They reside on the UWS in Waterline Square. The schedule is Monday through Friday for 47.50 hours weekly, about 8am-6pm. The job begins April 13th and the baby will be about 4-months-old then.

The candidate to hire must handle the role professionally, have high attention to detail, be engaging with their child, and encouraging his developmental growth.
