Overview:
A friendly, professional family on the Upper East Side of Manhattan is seeking an experienced Full-Time Nanny to care for their happy, engaged 6-month-old son. Both parents have demanding careers and are looking for a warm, engaging, highly experienced caregiver who will be genuinely invested in their son’s development and become a long-term part of their family. The family would love to find someone who can grow with them.
The ideal candidate is bubbly, outgoing, nurturing, hands-on, and calm, with a minimum of 8 years of professional infant-care experience. The parents are specifically looking for someone who will actively engage with their son throughout the day through reading, singing, developmental play, outdoor time, and age-appropriate learning. They are interested in Montessori-inspired activities, independent play, and introducing baby sign language, and would love a nanny who is knowledgeable and enthusiastic about supporting developmental milestones.
The family does not have a pet and do not ask the nanny to travel with them.
