A little bit about us
We need a a live-in-nanny for our three year old daughter, Charlotte. We work out of town and come home for Sundays, Holidays, and important events, but we are pretty busy so she would be in your care most of the time. She is Deaf so knowing ASL would be great, but if you do not then ASL classes would be mandatory (but paid for). She is also autistic, no experience required but you must be patient and kind. Charlotte loves to play and so you just be energetic and ready for a full day of activities. You would work monday-saturday, 8-9. Days off and emergencies are expected so we just need at least a weeks notice(if it's an emergency then we understand if it is last minute). We go on a few vacations a year so it would be nice if you could come, but it is not required. Some perks are you would have your own room, private bathroom, access to our in-home cook, a gym membership, and access to a car that we would like you to use to transport Charlotte (gas would be paid for). Responsibilities would be taking Charlotte to sports, the park, her doctors appointments, and any other activities she may have. You MUST be First Aid and CPR certified and have a valid license with a clean driving history. Background checks will be mandatory and random drug tests. We have a German Shepherd service dog and 2 cats so you must be comfortable with animals. Also we have no room for hate in our home so no homophobia, racism, xenophobia, transphobia, etc..Serious inquiries only! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!

I am a high school teacher and husband is an audio mixer.
We are looking a nanny who is calm and compassionate, passionate about education and arts, and who has ample experience with two kids, newborns and toddlers . (Our babe would be about 6 months in January and our toddler would be 2.5!) our toddler will be in school 3 days a week 830-3.
We are both very laid back artist and educators and want a positive, exploratory type experience for our little one during the day when we are at work.
We also want someone who we also bond with— someone we can think of as part of our family. Someone who will keep in touch with us and make us feel at ease. Safety is our biggest concern hiring a nanny for two kids.
Spanish speaking would be a major bonus as we would love our little one to learn multiple languages from an early age! We are both non-speaking, but practicing Spanish speakers ;)

A little bit about us
We have two adorable, polite, sweet kids. We need help 4 mornings per week (Tuesday-Friday) getting them ready for school, one on the school bus and one dropped off at school. Also, Friday is a half day of school for my son, so Fridays would include pick up and coverage for about 4 hours. Most important thing we're looking for in a caregiver is flexibility. We need to find someone who can also work full days when there is no school in session. If interested, we could also add a few hours if the caregiver wanted to help with light meal prep and housework for the kids such as making their beds and doing their laundry.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in New York, NY
Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.
The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.
There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in New York. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.
How to Interview for a Nanny Job in New York, NY
Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here is a list of some nanny interview questions to prepare for:
- What do you think children like best about you?
- What kind of activities will you do with children this age?
- How do you handle problems that arise behaviorally and emotionally with kids this age?
Beyond answering questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
