Overview

A busy Manhattan family relocating to Manhasset, New York at the end of July is seeking an experienced full time hybrid housekeeper/nanny to join their growing household. Both parents work full time and have three young children, including a newborn expected later this year, making a reliable, detail oriented professional who can seamlessly manage both household operations and childcare support an essential part of daily family life.

 

This is a full time role that will evolve alongside the family’s needs. Initially, the focus will be primarily on housekeeping and house management, with light childcare assistance such as driving the eldest daughter to and from school. As the new baby arrives and the family settles into their new home, the role will expand to include more hands on childcare responsibilities, functioning as a true hybrid nanny/housekeeper. The family is looking for someone with solid infant and baby experience who can step in confidently when needed, including covering for the primary nanny during vacations or busy stretches when all three children are home at once.

 

The ideal candidate is self sufficient, warm, and thoroughly experienced in both household management and working with young children. The family is grounded, welcoming, and professional, and they are looking for someone who takes genuine pride in maintaining a beautiful home while also being a trusted, capable presence for their kids. This is a wonderful opportunity for a seasoned professional ready to grow with a family in a lovely suburban setting.
