Overview
A lovely family based in NYC is seeking a fantastic career nanny to assist with their bright and joyful 18-month-old child. The family splits their time between NYC and their other homes around the US, and is seeking someone to join them. While in NYC the position is live-out, so the nanny must be local and have their own accommodations. In all other locations the family will provide separate accommodations. There will be periods of up 5 months when the family will relocate to other homes. The schedule for this role is one week on/one week off, with flexibility for longer rotations during travel. The family enjoys a laid back yet organized home, and an active and well-rounded lifestyle. Multiple languages are spoken in the home and they would love to find a nanny who is fluent in a second language and willing to speak with the child in that language.
