A family relocating to Wyckoff, NJ is looking for a warm, nurturing part-time nanny for a long-term, live-out role. They have two children: a 5.5-year-old in kindergarten and a 3.5-year-old in preschool. The family's beloved nanny of more than five years can't make the move with them. They hope to find someone who will become a trusted, family-like presence the children can grow close to over the years. This is a split-shift role. Mornings mean getting the kids ready and off to school. Afternoons mean pickup, driving to after-school activities, and the evening routine. The family will sometimes need extra evening coverage, and weekend evening hours may be available for a nanny who wants them, though they are not required. The home has a swimming pool, so the nanny must be a confident swimmer. Parking is available on-site.

• Manage the evening routine, including dinner, bath, and bedtime prep as needed
• Supervise the children closely around the home swimming pool
• Keep the children's spaces tidy and do children's laundry as needed
• Cover occasional evenings as needed
• Keep open, consistent communication with the parents about the children's day

Requirements:

• Previous professional nanny or childcare experience, ideally with preschool and early elementary-age children
• Valid driver's license, clean driving record, and own reliable vehicle
• Comfortable driving children to school and activities
• Confident swimmer, comfortable supervising children around a pool
• Available Monday–Friday, 7:00am–9:00am and 2:30pm–7:00pm
• Seeking a long-term position
• Flexible for occasional evening coverage
• CPR and First Aid certification preferred
• Must be able to provide 3–5 professional references
• Must be able to pass a comprehensive background check
