Overview
A sweet and busy family of five on the UWS is seeking a Spanish-speaking daytime NCS or infant nanny to assist with care of their new baby, due in August. The ideal initial schedule for this role will be 5 days per week, 12 hours per day, and the hours will be 7am-7pm. The family has older children who have their own nanny- no care of the older children is required, but the NCS/infant nanny should be willing to help facilitate relationship building between the older children and the baby.
