A fun and fully staffed Long Island family is seeking a highly experienced Nanny or Governess to care for their 15-month-old daughter and, beginning this summer, a newborn due at the end of June. This is a live-in position while on duty, sharing a room with the baby until March. Once the family moves back to their permanent residence in approximately four months, the nanny will have a private bedroom and bathroom.

The household is exceptionally clean, organized, and highly sterile, so the ideal candidate must excel in hygiene, structure, and child-related upkeep.
