A family in downtown Manhattan is seeking an experienced Full-Time Nanny to care for their 6-month-old infant and become a trusted, long-term partner in their child's growth and development.

The family is looking for a loving, engaged, and proactive nanny who genuinely enjoys the infant and early toddler stages and understands how quickly a child's needs evolve during the first years of life. The ideal candidate brings strong infant experience, a thoughtful understanding of developmental milestones, and the confidence to create engaging, age-appropriate days while maintaining the consistency and structure that are important to the family.

Open communication and partnership are central to this role. The parents are occasionally home during the workday, so the nanny should be equally comfortable providing independent care and working alongside engaged parents. They are looking for someone who communicates openly, shares observations, welcomes feedback, and feels comfortable speaking up when something related to the child's care or development warrants discussion.

The family travels regularly to both domestic and international destinations, and they would love to find a nanny who enjoys traveling and can provide continuity of care while away from home.

The general schedule is Monday through Friday, approximately 8:00 AM–6:00 PM, guaranteeing 50–55 hours per week. Flexibility for occasional evenings or weekends with advance notice is appreciated.
