About the Family

A warm family in Alpine, NJ is seeking an experienced ROTA Nanny to join their fully staffed household and work alongside an established ROTA nanny of two years. The family has two children: a 3.5-year-old girl and a 7-month-old boy. Both parents are very involved and work in and out of the home.

The 3.5-year-old is sweet, sensitive, observant, imaginative, and very bright. She is active and enjoys being outdoors, parks, animals, dancing, books, princesses, and imaginative play. The 7-month-old is a happy, affectionate baby who enjoys music, books, cuddling, and is beginning solids while following a structured feeding and sleep routine.

The family has a Household Manager/PA, chef, and housekeeper, allowing the nanny to remain fully focused on the children. A baby nurse will remain with the family for approximately four more weeks, with weekend support continuing through the baby's first birthday.
