Full-Time Career Nanny (Open to Relocation!) | TriBeCa, NYC

A warm and welcoming family based in Tribeca, NYC is seeking an exceptional, highly experienced full-time Nanny to join their household and care for their two young daughters, born February 2024 and July 2026. The schedule will be Monday through Friday, 7:30am–5:30pm, approximately 47.5 hours per week, with guaranteed hours.

This is a collaborative, shared-care position working alongside an involved stay-at-home mother. They hope to find someone who will become a trusted and valued part of their household for many years, growing with the girls from infancy and toddlerhood through to school age.

Their eldest daughter attends a Montessori preschool and is a bright, curious child with a particular interest in books, early learning and creative activities, as well as swimming and gymnastics. Their younger daughter is currently an infant, so candidates should bring excellent hands-on experience across both the baby and toddler years and be confident supporting evolving feeding, sleep, routines and developmental milestones.

Cooking is also an important part of the position. The nanny should be a confident and enthusiastic home cook who enjoys preparing fresh, nutritious and varied food for children and is comfortable taking ownership of meal planning, grocery ordering, packed lunches and batch cooking.
