KC113 - Full-Time Nanny - Rye, NY
About The Position
A warm, easygoing family in Rye, NY is seeking an experienced, energetic, and nurturing full-time nanny for their three children: a 4-year-old boy, 2-year-old girl, and 5-month-old baby. The two older children attend school during the day, while the baby is home full-time. The nanny will primarily focus on the baby during the mornings before transitioning to care for all three children in the afternoons. The family is looking for someone who is confident managing three young children and can stay calm and composed in a busy household. Their ideal nanny is warm, kind, empathetic, energetic, and able to set appropriate boundaries without being overly strict or raising their voice. They follow a gentle approach with clear boundaries and would love someone who can balance warmth with confident discipline. A sense of humor and the ability to roll with the natural chaos of three young children will be important. Both parents work, with Mom working from home some days. Dad works in NYC five days per week. The family is casual and collaborative and is looking for a proactive nanny who can independently manage the children's schedules, arrange playdates, and plan activities without requiring significant oversight.
