Position Overview
A North Reading family is seeking an experienced full-time nanny for their two children, a 6-month-old and a 3.5-year-old. This is a long-term, live-out position, Monday through Friday during business hours. The nanny will run the children's day independently — breakfast, walks, outdoor play, and engaging, hands-on activities at home and out in the community. The 3.5-year-old begins half-day preschool just after Labor Day, four days per week from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM at a school five minutes from the home, and the nanny will handle that transportation. The family is looking for someone active, dependable, and full of positive energy who enjoys creating age-appropriate activities: science museum visits (the family holds a membership), library trips, park outings with the many children in the neighborhood, reading, and educational play. A finished basement play space is available for rainy and winter days. Housekeeping is limited to the children's needs; a cleaning service comes every two weeks.
