About the Role

A warm, established Westchester family is welcoming their first child, a lively 3.5-month-old girl, and is looking for an experienced, long-term infant nanny. The role starts part-time (~20 hrs/week) while the mother is on maternity leave, then transitions to full-time by late October once she returns to work. The family values genuine developmental knowledge, patience, and a naturally organized, self-sufficient caregiver who can work comfortably alongside a parent who works from home part of the week.

What You Will Do

• Full daily infant care: feeding, soothing, naps, diapering
• Age-appropriate developmental engagement, classes, and activities as the baby grows
• Light laundry (baby's laundry)
• Light dog care: bathroom breaks, walks with stroller, occasional feeding
• Maintain existing household organization systems (bins, labels, order) independently
• Family-assistant tasks (grocery runs, errands) as hours allow during the transition period

Schedule and Compensation

• Transition phase (now–late October): Mon–Fri, ~9am–1pm (~20 hrs/week)
• Full-time phase (late October onward): ~3 long days/week (7:30am–7:30pm) plus 2 shorter WFH days (~9am–5pm)
• Occasional flexibility for later evenings
• $35–40/hour to start; up to $45/hour for an exceptional candidate
• Long-term placement strongly preferred
