About The Position

A warm family based in Greenwich, CT, is seeking an experienced and engaging Nanny/Housekeeper to support their household and 6-year-old daughter. The family is looking for someone who is seeking longevity and can become a trusted and valued part of their home.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced career nanny who is genuinely engaged with children and takes an active interest in their daughter’s education and development. The family would particularly value someone who can support homework, offer thoughtful guidance through age-appropriate social situations and be a positive and consistent influence in their daughter’s life. The preferred schedule is approximately 10am–6pm, four weekdays and one weekend day, with flexibility for an occasional evening babysitting (Approximately once per week).
