A growing family in the West Village, NYC is looking for a dependable, nurturing, and proactive live-out ROTA nanny to care for their newborn and 2-year-old. Care is shared by two ROTA nannies on 12-hour shifts (7am-7pm), working 1-2 weeks on/ 1-2 weeks off. The nannies are live-out while on duty (so must maintain their own housing in the area) unless they are traveling with the family, or required to stay later/ over on occasion. The nanny is expected to be on-call when present at home, and keep their schedule clear during their entire shift.

From June through August, the family resides in the Hamptons, and during this time the position transitions to live-in while on rotation (candidates will be provided a private bedroom and bathroom). The family also travels both within the U.S. and abroad; when a trip takes them out of town, the family covers the nanny's flight back to their home base for the off rotation.

This is a long-term role for caregivers who want to build a genuine, lasting bond with the children and grow with them as their needs change. The right person loves working with young children, takes pride in creating a calm and nurturing home, and works well alongside a team. Both nannies would take turns accompanying the family on domestic and international trips. A flexible, adaptable approach is essential, since plans can change with travel, holidays, the children's routines, and other commitments that come up. The family has a newborn care specialist for the baby's first 4 months, so the nanny can expect the baby to be in a consistent, well-established routine.

Day to day, the nanny keeps the children engaged in age-appropriate play and outings and supports their overall care. The nanny will assume full responsibility for the children's day-to-day care, development, routines, and child-related organization, providing attentive, proactive, and professional support in partnership with the parents. Core responsibilities include:

• Provide exceptional, warm, and attentive care while ensuring the children's safety, comfort, happiness, and overall well-being at all times.
• Establish and maintain consistent, age-appropriate routines for feeding, naps, sleep, hygiene, play, and developmental activities, adapting as the children's needs evolve.
• Prepare and serve bottles, meals, and snacks, introduce solids when appropriate, and encourage healthy eating habits and self-feeding.
• Assist with all aspects of daily care, including diapering, dressing, bathing, toileting, and bedtime routines.
• Plan and lead engaging, developmentally appropriate activities, including sensory play, tummy time, reading, music, arts and crafts, imaginative play, and outdoor exploration.
• Independently take the children on walks, appointments, classes, playdates, and other enriching outings, exercising sound judgment at all times.
• Foster each child's emotional, social, physical, and cognitive development through attentive, responsive, and individualized care.
• Maintain accurate daily logs of feedings, naps, diaper changes, meals, activities, milestones, and other relevant observations.
• Prepare, clean, and sanitize children's bottles, feeding equipment, and meal areas to a high standard.
• Maintain exceptional organization and cleanliness of all child-related spaces, including the nursery, playroom, children's bedrooms, stroller, diaper bag, car seats, and other equipment.
• Manage all child-related household tasks, including children's laundry, replenishing supplies, organizing deliveries, rotating outgrown clothing and toys, and completing occasional child-related errands.
• Communicate proactively and thoughtfully with the parents regarding routines, milestones, observations, and recommendations.
• Collaborate professionally with the alternate ROTA nanny and other household staff to ensure seamless transitions, consistency of care, and a respectful working relationship.
• Demonstrate initiative, discretion, flexibility, and excellent judgment, anticipating the children's needs while adapting to changing schedules and family priorities.
• Travel domestically and internationally with the family as needed, preparing and packing children's belongings, maintaining established routines across locations, keeping personal accommodations tidy, and occasionally sharing a room with one of the children while traveling.
