Overview: NATIONWIDE SEARCH: UPPER WEST SIDE, NYC: A warm, dynamic family in the UWS is seeking 2 FULL-TIME LIVE-IN/OUT ROTA NANNIES to care for their vibrant 2.5-year-old son. This is a unique opportunity for an experienced professional who is passionate about early childhood development and fostering secure emotional connections. The family embraces a patient, respectful parenting style rooted in secure attachment, emotional literacy, and positive discipline, prioritizing communication over correction. They're looking for someone with a bachelor's degree and a strong understanding of child development, particularly in areas such as play therapy and emotional expression through play. The ideal candidate will be calm, present, attuned, and active-comfortable on the soccer field, able to keep up with an energetic toddler, and just as excited about a museum day as an afternoon spent building block towers. This is a 14-day on/14-day off rotational position. Travel is a key component of the role-passport required-with regular trips to destinations including Bermuda, Vermont, Connecticut, and Florida, and potential visits to France. A family-provided vehicle is available in the city, and the nanny must be a confident driver as the mother does not currently drive. Spanish, French, Farsi, or Persian language skills are a plus, though not required. The family shares their home with a lovable Siberian Husky who's gentle, friendly, and very much a part of the household-he truly thinks he's one of the humans! Candidates should be dog-friendly, comfortable with pets in the home, and have no related allergies. An NDA may be required prior to interviews, if selected. Although the schedule follows a 14-day on/14-day off rota, the nanny will typically have evenings free while the child sleeps. Flexibility is key, as there may occasionally be nights when the nanny is needed for full-charge overnight care-though these instances are rare, and the child reliably sleeps through the night. The position offers a fully furnished, private two-bedroom apartment in the same Upper West Side building as the family, with luxury amenities including a kids' club, squash and basketball courts, an indoor soccer field, and a bowling alley. The apartment may be used by 1 or both rotational providers full-time, or just during working rotations. Compensation for each role is $120,000+/year via payroll based on experience, with healthcare, 401(k), and additional benefits included. This is a fantastic opportunity for a thoughtful, experienced, and committed professional ready to join a supportive, active household that values emotional intelligence, creativity, and a deep love of learning.
