MONTCLAIR, NJ (LOCAL CANDIDATES ONLY): Lovely Montclair family is seeking a FULL-TIME, LIVE-OUT NANNY/HOUSEHOLD MANAGER to care for their two children, ages 7 and 10, and to help keep the household running smoothly! With dual-working parents, both in-home and in the city, and two active children, this family is seeking a candidate who is a motivated self-starter, outgoing, and engaging. Reliability is a must and very important to the success of this role. They treat their nanny as part of their family; they hope to find someone who feels the same way and is seeking a long-term placement. Given the busy schedule of both parents and children, they would like to find someone who is flexible with their schedule and open to going with the flow. MUST be able to drive and be okay with dogs!

 

Their daughter (10) is described as outgoing, kind, caring, and mature. Their son (7) is described as funny, active, thoughtful, and determined. The perfect nanny will nurture their qualities and help them continue to grow into mature, independent, and caring individuals. During the school year, both children attend school full-time and have after-school activities. During the summer, the children will attend camps and extracurriculars. Driving the children to-and-from activities is a must, preferably in the nanny’s car with ample mileage and maintenance reimbursements. 

 

Duties include but are not limited to full care of the children when home, including commuting to-and-from school and activities. Planning outings, play dates, and fun activities with the children will be a part of this role. Laundry and meal prep for the family will be necessary, so must be comfortable with cooking or preparing meals for the household! Light housekeeping, errand running, and household management tasks will be included during hours where the children are not home. Someone who is experience in household management and excels with organizational tasks will be appreciated! The family has a Labradoodle that will need light walks during the day as well. The overarching goal, second to caring for the children and their needs, will be to help the household run as efficiently and smoothly as possible!

 

Current schedule is as follows, with the understanding that flexibility will be asked for and given in return, when possible:

 

Monday: 12pm - 6pm

Tuesday - Thursday: 7am - 7pm

Friday: 12pm - 6pm

 

The parents may occasionally need additional hours in the evening, weekend hours, and/or travel requests. Advance notice will be given when possible. The home is located in a lovely area that is walkable to downtown Upper Montclair, with walkable parks nearby and easy access to the bus and train. 

 

Start date is July 2024. Must be open to signing an NDA. Paid sick time, vacation, and holidays will be included and discussed during interviews. Pay is $25+, commensurate with experience, gross pay via payroll. Must have valid driver’s license and preferably their own car. Flexibility with schedule will be required. Prefer candidates that are within close proximity, ideally 30-minute or less commute to the Montclair area.
