EC003 - Temp Nanny - NYC + Travel
About The Position
A warm, Europe-based family is seeking an experienced temporary nanny to help care for their three-year-old daughter and ten-month-old son during an extended stay in New York City. The family will travel with their two longstanding Spanish-speaking nannies, who are very much part of the family. The additional nanny will work collaboratively with the existing team and provide cover on their days off. The mother will have professional commitments during the day, as well as evening engagements. The nanny should be comfortable providing support into the evening and planning a range of engaging daytime activities for the children. The household is warm, friendly, and relaxed. The children have an established routine, although some flexibility is required as the mother’s schedule may change. The family is looking for someone adaptable and comfortable going with the flow rather than being overly rigid. The family anticipates spending additional time in the United States and would ideally like to develop an ongoing relationship with the same nanny. There may be opportunities for future assignments or a longer-term position, although candidates interested only in the New York placement are welcome to apply.
