Household dynamic: 

• This light-hearted and globally-minded NYC family with two energetic, artistic children is seeking a nanny/family assistant to support their dynamic household. Their 6-year-old son, who adores music, art, Legos, and all things creative, is in school during the week until early afternoon. On some days, he attends after-school activities like art, chess, or soccer; on other days, he has free time at the park. He is also enrolled in some sports activities, giving him space and many options for discovering his passions. Their youngest, who is nearly 3, just began attending school Monday through Thursday, and her Fridays are reserved for adventures at the library, park, and other outdoor activities. She is silly and sassy and absolutely loves to play. She will transition to a full-time school schedule in the spring. The nanny/family assistant will primarily support the children during after-school hours from 3:00pm to 7:30pm. During the school hours, the right candidate will shift gears to support the family through light family assisting responsibilities to ensure the home stays organized. 
• Regularly in and out of home, both parents lead fast-paced professional lives and are committed to both their careers and family. They maintain a positive, easy-going home and are seeking a nanny who brings warmth and energy to the mix. The family enjoys traveling for a few weeks each winter, often to warm-weather destinations such as Costa Rica, Tuscany, or Los Angeles. They are currently supported by another full-time nanny and have a housekeeper who visits twice a week. 

‍

Ideal candidate: 

• This position is perfect for a charismatic and engaging nanny/family assistant who adopts a joyful and educational approach to childcare. The ideal candidate thrives in a vibrant and dynamic home environment and is excited about supporting two creative and spirited young children. The family is looking for someone who is learning-oriented, upbeat, and enjoys engaging children in age-appropriate, hands-on activities that spark creativity and foster development. Confidence in assisting with homework while promoting meaningful, developmentally enriching play is essential. The right candidate should be capable of keeping up with the children’s before and after-school schedule and must be physically fit to walk the children to and from school, navigate stairs in a walk-up home, and participate in after-school activities, outings, and park adventures. Bringing warmth, good energy, and a calm, grounded presence to the home will be highly appreciated, along with a professional demeanor in a busy household.
• The family is looking for someone who is fun and playful in the right moments, yet professional and dependable. They hope to work with someone who feels like part of the family and brings adaptability, reliability, and positive energy to each day. In addition to childcare, the family appreciates a candidate who is happy to pitch in with light family assistant tasks whenever needed. Someone with a see-a-need, fill-the-need mentality in supporting an organized, well-run home while keeping the children at the center of their care will thrive in this home. 
• Responsibilities include creating an environment for the children to grow and thrive, child-related household tasks, including but not limited to meal prep, tidying, and organizing children’s areas, occasional errands, before and after school routines, and coordinating activities. Family assisting duties include unpacking groceries, laundry, loading and unloading the dishwasher, and taking out trash. Coordinating vendors and managing the family calendar, if needed, would be a huge plus.  
• While not a requirement for the role, the family would love to work with a candidate who can travel with the family throughout the year.

Qualifications: 

• 3 years of professional childcare experience
• Knowledge of developmental milestones and comfort supporting homework for elementary-school-aged kids
• Comfortable walking the children to and from school, as well as within the family’s home and activities.
• Family assisting or household management experience 
• Willingness to perform family assistant duties 
• Flexibility to stay later on occasion, with advance notice, when the family needs evening coverage
• Within ‌commutable distance of Williamsburg, Brooklyn
• Valid passport
