AS698 - Bilingual Career Nanny - Upper East Side/Travel

Overview

A lovely family based in NYC is seeking a fantastic career nanny to assist with their bright and joyful one-year-old child. The family splits their time between NYC and their other homes around the US, and is seeking someone to join them. While in NYC the position is live-out, so the nanny must be local and have their own accommodations. In all other locations the family will provide separate accommodations. There will be periods of up 5 months when the family will relocate to other homes. The schedule for this role is flexible- the family is ideally looking for 6-day per week coverage, 9am-7pm, and they are happy to provide a schedule where they give the nanny more time off after several weeks of work. They are ideally looking for the right person, and can be flexible on the schedule. The family enjoys a laid back yet organized home, and an active and well-rounded lifestyle. Multiple languages are spoken in the home and they would love to find a nanny who is fluent in a second language and willing to speak with the child in that language.
