Overview

A lovely family of four in Greenwich, CT is seeking a top-notch live-in nanny. The family has two boys, ages 3-years and 7.5-months. The schedule for this role will be Monday through Friday, 7:30am-7:30pm. A five-day live-in candidate would be ideal, but the family is open to someone who needs to live-in 7 days, and the provided accommodation is a private bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Duties for this role will include everything related to the children, including supporting the achievement of milestones, going for walks and supporting indoor/outdoor play, infant care (feeding and washing bottles, diapers, managing sleep and feeding schedules), transporting the children as needed, child-related tidying and organization, children's laundry, and cooking for the children. The family is seeking a nanny who is comfortable in the kitchen, as the children eat fresh and healthy meals with very minimal processed foods in their diet. They would love to find a team-player who is willing to assist with keeping common areas neat- family laundry would be greatly appreciated, but is not required. The 3-year-old child has a warm, happy disposition. He also has global developmental delays, including an autism diagnosis. Experience with special needs or developmental delays experience is a major plus but not a requirement. The family is looking for someone patient and engaging, who is able to communicate on his level. 

The father works long hours in the city, and the mother works from home (part time), so the nanny should feel comfortable working with her as a team. While the schedule is 60 hours, there will often be down-time built into the day while the older child is at school from 9am-3pm. They are looking for someone who enjoys getting down on the floor with the children rather than observing. This is a physically demanding job, so candidates should be active and able to manage and carry a large toddler. The ideal candidate for this role will be warm and engaging, patient and flexible, and dedicated. 

The family has a small hypoallergenic dog, so candidates should be comfortable around pets. They travel several times per year over school breaks and would love for their nanny to join them. Driving is required for this role, and a car will be provided for work use. The ability to swim would be nice but is not required. The family is offering a rate of $30-35/hr. for this position, depending on experience. If you are legal to work in the US and would like to be considered for this role, please apply to AS484.
