About The Position
A kind family located in Darien, CT is looking for a full-time nanny for their four children under 6 to start asap. The general schedule will be Monday through Friday 7:30am-6pm. Flexibility to occasionally assist with weekend or date-night hours is preferred, with additional hours available for a nanny who is interested.

Tag teaming with mom to handle the logistics of four busy kids is essential. The older three children are all in school at least half day.
