A little bit about us

Seeking a trustworthy and mature part-time sitter to watch ONE child (age 3) maybe 4 hours a week/occassionally and/or THREE children (ages 3, 10, & 12) 8+ hours a week.
Additional hours/days needed occasionally for date nights.
An ideal candidate is energetic, kind, fun, creative, patient, trustworthy and responsible and has experience with toddlers through adolescents. Experience with with special needs a plus.
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 essential. (Our older two are very helpful with the 3 year old--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, swimming, 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 school pick-up is ever needed. (Of course compensation would be provided for gas and any 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!

A little bit about us

We are a loving family of five based in Bronxville, looking for a dedicated and caring nanny to become an extension of our family. Our home is filled with warmth, laughter, and the joy that comes with raising three wonderful children. Each of our kids has their own unique personality, and one of them is on the autism spectrum, which has taught us the value of patience, understanding, and celebrating every small milestone.

As parents, we are deeply committed to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for our children to thrive. My wife will work alongside you as she is a stay at home mother. We're looking for a nanny who shares our values of kindness, creativity, and respect and who is eager to help foster a safe and engaging environment for our children.

We envision a partnership with someone who is dependable, compassionate, and enthusiastic about working with kids of different ages and needs. If you have experience with neurodiverse children or a willingness to learn, that’s a big plus! Above all, we hope to find someone who will truly feel at home with us.

If you’re looking for a family that values connection, teamwork, and a little bit of fun every day, we’d love to hear from you!
