KO376 - 2x Month Weekend Nanny - Upper East Side, NYC

Overview

A family on the Upper East Side is seeking a fantastic weekend nanny for their two sons, ages 9 and 3. The role will be every other weekend Fridays from 2pm-7pm and Saturdays and Sundays 8am-6pm or 9am - 7pm. These hours can be flexible for the right fit! The family splits their time between their homes in Millbrook, NY and on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Typically they spend weekends upstate and weekdays in the city. The client is looking for someone who can live-out while they are in NYC and can live-in in a separate cottage on the property in Millbrook while they’re upstate on weekends and during the Summers. Responsibilities will consist of caring for their 9-year-old son who has mild cerebral palsy. He is active, bright, and funny, but has some mild physical disability as well as some social-emotional processing difficulties. Other duties include all tasks related to childcare for the three-year-old. This includes engaging with him actively in play and spending time outdoors swimming and running around as well as keeping him on a structured routine. The candidate will be responsible for assisting with any scheduling and planning of appointments as well as keeping on top of the child’s needs. When the family is back in NYC, the candidate will organize/host play-dates and take the children to museums, parks, and activities. The candidate will only be required to prepare meals for the child and will handle light housekeeping related to the children. The ideal candidate is clean, organized, and detail oriented. The family is looking for a self-starter who has an understanding of child development. Someone who has experience managing children with special needs is ideal for their son, but the candidate must be FUN, calm, patient, and energetic.  The candidate must have CPR certification and a clean driving record- a car will be provided for all on-duty hours. The ability to swim is a necessity, as the family has a pool at their home upstate. The nanny must also be comfortable with dogs, as they have a small dachshund. The family requires that their nanny get a flu shot and be vaccinated for COVID. A competitive salary and benefits will be provided for the right candidate.
