The position I'm looking for:

Type of position/Schedule:  Currently open to either a long-term role, or a temporary/travel position.  
For a long-term position, I am looking for either full time hours in a regular weekly schedule (45-60+ guaranteed hours every week), or a Rotational position  (1wk on/1wk off or 2wks on/ 2 wks off).  Happy to discuss a schedule that works well for everyone!

 

Living situation:  Live-out or Live-"on" (a separate guest house on the property, separate staff housing, in a separate provided apartment or  housing stipend).

 

Location:  Open to new locations. I love to explore new places.  I've lived in NYC, D.C., OR, and NC so far! 

​

Travel:  Experience traveling with families (Family vacations, second homes, as well as, traveling with parents needing to work/go to conferences) and working in new cities.  I enjoy traveling and hope to personally do more travel in coming years!

​

Start date available:  Available immediately after interviews, a work trial, contract signings, and moving to the new location!

​

Ages of children:  I have experience with newborns to teenagers in various settings, and enjoy working with all ages.

 

Child-related responsibilities:  I’m happy to take on the typical nanny tasks such as children’s laundry, meals, driving children to school, activities & lessons, planning educational lessons, activities, and outings, etc.
 

Additional Family-assistant role responsibilities:  I’m happy to add on grocery shopping, ordering and stocking items for the home, errands, organizing, returning items, taking the car for service, some family laundry, and many other household assisting tasks.

​

Additional House Management role responsibilities:  I have assisted with overseeing vendors, setting up times directly with vendors to have tasks at the home completed, communicating with other staff, assisted with setting up for parties, and am happy to learn more for your families needs. 

 

Type of household:  I’m best suited for a professional couple, in a neat household, where the parents are comfortable with me transporting their children to get out and about to explore parks, play groups, museums, libraries, classes, and more.  I assist best in a fully autonomous role. 

 

Special situations:  My experience is limited, but I have worked with medically fragile children, as well as, neurodiverse children. I'm happy to do training and speak with the child's therapists and doctors to assist as needed. I have taken children to PT, OT, Speech Therapy and various doctors. 


Allergies/Pets:  I have a severe food allergy to nuts.   I can work in homes with Nuts with precautions taken - so please ask questions if this is a concern for you. It has thankfully never been an issue in any of the homes I've worked in so far!
I am allergic to some animals.  I would prefer to work in a home with no pets, or with well trained animals that listen to instruction.  I have worked in many homes with pets, so please reach out to discuss if this might be an issue. 

​

Vaccinations: I receive yearly flu shots, am fully Covid vaccinated with boosters, Tdap (updated 2024), and am willing to receive other vaccines depending on family need with discussion. 

​

Commitment: Hoping for a long-term position(5+ years) or temporary/travel type jobs. 

​

Car:  I require a "nanny car" to be provided by the family in places that require driving.  This is for all outings, school/activities, doctor appointments, errands, etc.   In places like NYC, a personal driver and/or metro card will need to be provided. 

​

Required Pay: I expect to be paid legally with all taxes withheld, overtime over 40 hours in a week, guaranteed hours, and direct deposit payments through a reputable nanny tax & payroll company.  

Required Benefits for permanent positions:  Paid time off ( 2+ weeks vacation), paid sick days, paid federal holidays, a health insurance stipend or health insurance provided.  Other benefits are welcome.  If I am asked/required to work on holidays, that is double time pay. 

Travel Expenses:  My hourly rate, plus all overtime hours (over 40 hours in a week) are paid time and a half.  Travel time is also my hourly/overtime rate. 
 

All expenses are covered while traveling with families, this includes:
*Lodging -  hotel or airbnb with a separate space for bedroom and bathroom for the nanny.
*Transportation - any mode of transportation needed (flights, train, taxi's/lyfts/ubers, etc).
*Food - this includes all meals eaten while working, as well as, while not on the clock.
*Travel insurance for the nanny will be provided by the family.

*Travel (inconvenience) fee for every night spent away from my own home and/or regular routine.  This may be while traveling or while I am home with the children while the parents are away and I am unable to leave the home. 

*If I am expected to work on holidays, that is double time pay. 

*If I am working overnight and/or have been given the monitor to watch at night, this is additional hours to be paid.  This is separate from my travel  fee.
