Household dynamic:

• This is a fun-loving, warm, and dynamic family of five who keep very busy throughout the year with adventures! Their eldest child is 3 years old and loves maps, photography, dinosaurs, nature, and vehicles. He loves to play pretend! He also attends preschool three days a week in Connecticut. Their youngest twin daughters are 1.5 years old. One loves books and music, while the other loves dressing up and running around at full speed. They are looking to welcome a rotational nanny to round out their caregiving team, which currently includes three rotational nannies. They are an ‌adventurous, bilingual household, with Mandarin also spoken at home.
• Mom is a stay-at-home parent who enjoys being very involved and active in the children’s day-to-day, and Dad works in the city throughout the week. For most of the year, they split their time between Westchester and Manhattan. On weekends, Dad likes to take them somewhere in New England. During the winter, from December to March, they pack all their things and go ‌west to embrace the ski season. Skiing is a big part of their lifestyle, and the first school their oldest was enrolled in was a ski school. Every year, they embark on an extended business/leisure trip to Asia, typically lasting a few weeks, as well as a similar trip to Europe. They also take various trips to Maryland to visit their extended family. Closer to home, the family enjoys weekly stays in Manhattan and takes weekend getaways to various cities and towns on the East Coast, including Martha's Vineyard, Maine, and North Carolina. The family's style of traveling usually involves weaving their way across a few countries they haven’t been to before. The family fosters a fun dynamic at home with their fully staffed household team, employing three rotational nannies as well as a housekeeper and chef who comes twice a week.

Ideal candidate:

• This position is ideal for a trustworthy, reliable, travel-savvy, caring, and safety-conscious rotational nanny who is confident and can safely take charge of two young toddlers, bringing a growth-oriented mindset and joining the household team seamlessly. Someone with toddler experience who can step in and provide consistent corrective guidance in a gentle yet firm manner will be a great fit. Both parents are calm and reserved, so someone more introverted, thoughtful, and observant will thrive. Mom is present and highly involved and enjoys spending quality time with the children, so someone who can read the room and support the family in other ways during those moments. They have long-term rotational nannies, and the candidate should be able to collaborate effectively with the family and their existing nanny team. Once trust is established, the candidate should be able to take sole charge of one to two children at a time.
• They are looking for an efficient-minded candidate who has vast experience traveling with families, confident in managing logistics such as packing and repacking, installing car seats, managing strollers, and keeping pace with an on-the-go household. Adaptability is key, as the family values open communication and seeks someone professional, present, and open to feedback. The ideal candidate will anticipate needs, map out tasks, parallel process, optimize, and collaborate alongside other household members. Strong executive-functioning skills to delegate tasks appropriately are essential in their fast-paced, travel-oriented household. The family is not a resort family and prefers creating roadmaps, exploring different cities, and embracing adventure. A candidate who thrives in a grounded, dynamic environment and keeps pace with children already accustomed to a travel-filled lifestyle will be a perfect fit.
• Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks, including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, organizing of children’s areas, occasional errands, before and after school routines, coordinating activities, and traveling with the family throughout the year. Family assisting duties are running errands, light meal planning and preparation, grocery shopping, sending packages, dry cleaning, tidying and organizing, and coordinating vendors.
• While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who speaks a second language. The children are already speaking both English and Mandarin, and they would love to continue to expose them to multiple languages.

Qualifications:

• 3 years of professional childcare experience
• Experience working with toddlers
• Family assisting experience
• Extensive travel experience
• Ability to travel with family throughout the year
• Able to swim and care for children in water
• Experience working with co-nannies, either on ROTA or multi-nanny teams in the past
