Overview:
A family relocating to Wyckoff, NJ is looking for a warm, nurturing part-time nanny for a long-term, live-out role. They have two children: a 5.5-year-old in kindergarten and a 3.5-year-old in preschool. The family’s beloved nanny of more than five years can’t make the move with them. They hope to find someone who will become a trusted, family-like presence the children can grow close to over the years. This is a split-shift role. On Monday through Wednesday mornings, the nanny gets the kids ready and off to school. Weekday afternoons mean pickup, driving to after-school activities, and the evening routine. The family will sometimes need extra evening coverage, and weekend evening hours may be available for a nanny who wants them, though they are not required. The home has a swimming pool, so the nanny must be a confident swimmer. Parking is available on-site.

• Supervise the children closely around the home swimming pool
• Keep the children’s spaces tidy and do children’s laundry as needed

• Keep open, consistent communication with the parents about the children’s day

Requirements:

• Previous professional nanny or childcare experience, ideally with preschool and early elementary-age children
• Valid driver’s license, and own reliable vehicle
• Comfortable driving children to school and activities
