Additional hours/days needed occasionally (at least 1-3 times a month) for all THREE children--more frequently in the summer/when off from school.
An ideal candidate is energetic, kind, fun, creative, patient, trustworthy and responsible and has experience with infants through adolescents and/or children with special needs (or is willing to learn). Should also be a good role model, use sound judgment, and conduct themselves professionally. Being able to multi-task and prioritize children's varying needs is also essential. (Our older two are very helpful with the baby--and he's also pretty laid back--but they like to have fun and build a relationship with their caretaker as well).
Our children enjoy crafts, music/dancing, imaginative play, movies, playing outdoors, board games, dolls, and other fun/creative activities.
Light/quick/easy cooking (kids meals, snacks) and basic clean-up is expected and appreciated. Childcare would be primarily at our home, but a clean driving record is expected in the event of occasional outings and/or if emergency school pick-up/drop-off is ever needed. (Of course conpensation would be provided for gas, additional children, and/or extra expenses when applicable).
Our previous sitter(s) graduated and moved away, but one was with us for 4 years (another also grew close over the course of a year) and both were like a part of our family. We hope to find someone new we can grow to be just as comfortable with! Please reply if you think you're our person!

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in New York
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.
If you're exploring other types of jobs beyond nanny positions, consider looking into cleaning jobs, pet sitting jobs, luxury fashion jobs, or elder care jobs.
