About the Family

A warm family in Tribeca, New York City is seeking an experienced, emotionally mature, kind, engaging, and proactive Nanny/Family Assistant to care for their bright and spunky 5-year-old daughter. She is described as silly, thoughtful, and full of personality, and she loves art, singing, dancing, and imaginative play.

Dad works from an office, while Mom is a stay-at-home parent who is very involved in her daughter's day-to-day life, schooling, and development. Mom and Dad live in separate homes nearby each other, and the nanny should be comfortable navigating between the two homes as needed.

The family is looking for someone who is warm and communicative and can work collaboratively with Mom while also confidently taking ownership of the child's care and schedule. They value someone who is emotionally mature, confident setting boundaries, strong with redirection, creative, playful, and proactive.

The family is getting a cat this fall, so comfort with cats is required. They do not have any dietary restrictions, but they prioritize healthy eating, including limited sugar and no red dye.

About the Role

This role will primarily focus on providing engaging, attentive, and developmentally appropriate care for the family's 5-year-old daughter. The nanny will pick her up from school, coordinate her afternoon activities and playdates, and create a fun, enriching environment centered around her interests and development.

The child attends school until approximately 3:30 p.m., with an earlier 2:20 p.m. dismissal on Wednesdays. She occasionally attends an after-school playgroup until 4:30 p.m. and has gymnastics on Thursdays from 4:15–5:05 p.m. The nanny will be responsible for school pickups and transportation to activities and playdates.

The family would love a nanny who will take initiative in coordinating playdates and building strong connections with the child's friends, classmates, and their nannies. The ideal candidate will enjoy staying connected with the local nanny community and helping the child maintain an active and engaging social calendar.

The nanny should be creative and playful and genuinely enjoy getting down on the child's level to engage in reading, coloring, art projects, imaginative play, and other age-appropriate activities. The family values someone who can support the child's routines and habits while providing appropriate structure, consistency, and boundaries.

Strong cooking skills are highly desired. The nanny will be responsible for healthy meal preparation for the child, including cutting fruits and vegetables, preparing dinners five days per week, and introducing a new recipe each week. The family is looking for someone who is proactive about meal planning and enjoys helping the child develop healthy eating habits.

Household responsibilities will include taking out the garbage, seasonal clothing inventory for the child, household inventory, grocery shopping approximately once per week, meal planning, child laundry including sheets, weekly bedding changes, light home tidying and organization, kitchen tidying and cleanup, and light cleaning related specifically to the child's room and belongings. This may include stain care, bed making, toy organization, and cleaning the child's bathmat and water bottle. It would also be ideal, but not required, for the nanny to be responsible for servicing the family car approximately 1–2 times per year.

The family would appreciate someone who is highly organized, takes initiative without needing to be asked, and can confidently manage the many details that come with supporting a child's schedule and household. No car is required for the position, as transportation will primarily be by walking and public transportation.

A high degree of flexibility will be important, as the family will need the nanny to stay late with 1-2 nights per week. For evenings that extend past 8:00 or 9:00 p.m., the family will provide an Uber home. The family may also invite the nanny to join them for optional domestic travel, primarily to the Hamptons during the summer, although travel is not required for the position.

Above all, the family is looking for someone who is experienced, emotionally mature, warm, engaging, communicative, proactive, confident, creative, playful, and a true self-starter. The ideal candidate will be comfortable setting boundaries, skilled at redirection, and able to balance a child's independence with appropriate structure and support. They hope to find someone who will genuinely enjoy spending time with their daughter, take ownership of the role, and become a trusted long-term member of their household.

  • Prior professional nanny experience

About the Family

A warm and active family in Boston’s South End neighborhood is seeking an enthusiastic, reliable, and proactive nanny to support their three young children during the afternoon and evening hours. The family has three children: a 2-year-old boy, a 4-year-old boy, and a 6-month-old girl. The boys are very energetic and active and enjoy spending time outside, playing sports, exploring, reading, and participating in children’s activities around Boston.

Both parents work outside of the home. The family currently employs another full-time nanny who picks the boys up from school and cares for all three children until Mom returns home in the afternoon. The new nanny will transition into the afternoon/evening coverage and should be comfortable working collaboratively with the family’s existing nanny as part of a childcare team.

The ideal candidate will enjoy being active with children and feel comfortable exploring Boston, playing sports, spending time outdoors, reading, and engaging in children’s activities.

The nanny will also help Mom with dinner and nighttime routines for all three children. The nanny should be comfortable transitioning between caring for the boys and assisting with the baby as needed, while helping create a smooth and organized evening routine for the entire family.

When appropriate, the nanny will assist with child-related household responsibilities, including meal preparation, bottle cleaning and sanitation, cleaning up after activities and meals, keeping the children’s spaces tidy, light home tidying and organization, and helping maintain the common areas used throughout the day. The family values someone who is proactive and naturally takes initiative to keep the home organized.

The ideal candidate is enthusiastic, dependable, calm, proactive, and independent. They should be confident taking initiative, keeping the boys engaged and active, and supporting the family through the afternoon and evening routine.

A busy, highly organized family in Lincoln Park is seeking an experienced Lead Nanny to provide hands-on care while managing a team of four ROTA nannies. The family has five children: a 4-year-old boy, 3-year-old girl, 15-month-old identical twin boys, and 4-month-old baby girl. The children follow a very active and structured routine supported by a fully staffed household and established ROTA nanny team.

Dad works full-time outside the home, while Mom is a stay-at-home parent with an extremely active schedule and is frequently in and out of the home. The family travels periodically and maintains a busy lifestyle. They have four Pomeranians, and while pet care is not a primary responsibility, comfort around dogs is important. There are no household dietary restrictions or allergies, although one child has occasional food sensitivities.

About the Role

This is a 50% childcare and 50% team-management position. The Lead Nanny will serve as the direct manager of the ROTA nanny team, communicate directly with the parents, and ensure seamless coordination of childcare schedules, school logistics, activities, transitions, and coverage. The role also includes driving the children to activities, birthday parties, errands, and appointments using the family-provided nanny car.

The children are sweet, active, and developmentally engaged. The 4-year-old is silly, observant, affectionate, and has an incredible memory; the 3-year-old is bright, spirited, determined, and strong-willed; the 15-month-old twins are affectionate, active, and increasingly mobile; and the baby is very alert and developmentally advanced for her age. The ideal candidate will provide nurturing, developmentally appropriate care while confidently leading a sophisticated childcare team.

Management responsibilities include creating and maintaining childcare SOPs, policies, onboarding materials, schedules, and household-specific procedures; training and onboarding caregivers; serving as the primary communication bridge between the parents and childcare team; and helping the Family Assistant understand priorities and where support is most needed.

The first three months will require significant schedule flexibility, including occasional mornings, evenings, and weekends, as the Lead Nanny learns the household, family preferences, and existing team dynamics. Domestic and international travel is required.

The ideal candidate is an exceptionally organized, proactive, and independent professional with strong executive functioning, judgment, discretion, time management, and communication skills. They should be comfortable both giving and receiving feedback and have demonstrated experience leading or managing a team of nannies and caregivers. Experience creating systems, procedures, schedules, and documentation is essential.

Requirements:

  • Significant professional nanny experience (10+ years)

  • Previous experience leading or managing other household staff

  • Previous experience working in an office or as an Executive Assistant

  • Proven experience in a Lead Nanny, Nanny Manager, or similar leadership role

  • Strong understanding of child development

  • Excellent executive functioning, organization, and time-management skills

  • Exceptional judgment and discretion

  • Highly proactive and independent

  • Excellent written and oral communication skills

  • Comfortable giving and receiving feedback

  • Experience creating systems, procedures, schedules, SOPs, and documentation

  • Strong team leadership and interpersonal skills

  • Comfortable managing a busy, fully staffed household

  • Willingness to provide both hands-on childcare and team management

  • Valid driver’s license and strong driving experience

  • Comfortable driving children regularly using a family-provided vehicle

  • Flexibility to work occasional mornings, evenings, weekends, and travel

  • Comfortable around dogs

About the Family

A warm and busy family in Boston’s Beacon Hill neighborhood is seeking an experienced, energetic, and collaborative nanny to support their three young children. The family deeply values strong communication skills and a positive attitude and is looking for a trusted partner to manage their children’s day to day. The family currently has two children, a 2.5-year-old girl, and a 16-month-old boy, with a new baby girl arriving in October. They are looking for a nanny who is flexible, organized, and comfortable caring for multiple young children while working closely with another full-time nanny.

Both parents work predominantly from an office but will occasionally work from home. The family also employs another full-time nanny, so the ideal candidate must be comfortable working as part of a team and communicating openly and collaboratively with another caregiver.

The family has one small, hypoallergenic dog who does not require any care. There are no dietary restrictions. No car is needed for this position, but there is parking available if needed.

The family appreciates a nanny who is open to traveling with them approximately 1–3 times per year, primarily for domestic travel, although this is not firmly required.

About the Role

This role will primarily focus on the family’s newborn daughter, providing attentive, engaging, and developmentally appropriate care throughout the day. The family’s current full-time nanny will primarily care for the 2.5-year-old daughter (who is in preschool) and 16-month-old son, allowing the new nanny to take the lead with the newborn while working collaboratively as part of the childcare team.

The family expects the newborn to ultimately follow a similar pattern to their previous two children with a strong structure to the day focused on a healthy sleep schedule, feeding schedule, and engaging play both indoors and outdoors as appropriate. They expect to start with 3-4 naps during the day, with growing wake windows for expanded activities. The nanny will be responsible for planning age-appropriate activities and outings, supporting developmental milestones, and focusing on daily routines. As the newborn grows, responsibilities will expand to helping prepare healthy meals and snacks and attending local classes with the baby. When the baby is napping, the nanny will complete child-related household tasks such as children’s laundry, bottle preparation and cleaning, and light tidying and organization.

The new nanny should be comfortable assisting with transitions and shared responsibilities as needed with the other two kids and should expect to be on point for multiple kids at one time throughout the week based on school, vacation, class, and sleep schedules. 

The ideal candidate is organized, energetic, flexible, and collaborative, with strong communication skills and the ability to take initiative while working seamlessly alongside another nanny. As the family adjusts to life with three young children, the ability to adapt to changing needs and maintain a positive, team-oriented approach will be especially important.

Requirements:

  • Prior professional nanny experience

  • 4-year college degree preferred

  • Experience caring for infants, toddlers, and multiple young children

  • Strong understanding of child development and developmental milestones

  • Warm, nurturing, and engaging personality

  • Organized, flexible, and energetic

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills

  • Comfortable working alongside another full-time nanny

  • Reliable, responsible, and dependable

  • Comfortable supporting routines, transitions, and changing family needs

  • Excellent references from previous families

  • Legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Pets: One small dog; no care required

Transportation: No car required for the position, but parking is available.

About the Family
A warm, loving family in Chevy Chase, Maryland is seeking a professional Nanny/Family Assistant to provide attentive, engaging, and developmentally informed care for their 5-year-old daughter. She is a lovely, affectionate, cheerful little girl who loves connecting with and engaging with other people. She is autistic and nonverbal.

She thrives with close one-to-one attention, meaningful play, movement, outdoor activities, and adults who take the time to understand her individual ways of communicating through gestures, looks, facial expressions, points, and sounds. The family is looking for someone who will genuinely engage with their daughter rather than simply supervise her and who is passionate about meeting her where she is developmentally.

She responds particularly well to a relationship-based, child-led approach. The family follows DIR/Floortime principles and emphasizes connection over correction, a low-demand philosophy, plenty of transition time, and an environment that supports her regulation. She may become dysregulated around transitions or non-preferred activities, so the ideal candidate will be patient, highly self-regulated, calm, compassionate, and comfortable slowing down to support her needs.

She attends floortime therapies Monday through Friday from approximately 9:00am–12:00pm. Her nanny will work collaboratively with Mom, who is a stay-at-home mom, Dad, and her therapy team to help carry therapeutic and relationship-based approaches naturally into everyday life. Dad occasionally travels back and forth between the UK and Dubai. The nanny will initially onboard alongside Mom and gradually transition into independent care.

About the Role
This is a child-focused Nanny/Family Assistant position with the primary responsibility being attentive, one-to-one care of the family's daughter. The ideal candidate will bring genuine passion and joy to their work with children and will be eager to build a strong, trusting relationship with her while learning her unique communication cues, preferences, and needs.

The nanny will engage her through child-led play, movement, sensory activities, outdoor activities, and developmentally appropriate interaction. A major focus of the role will be following her lead, meeting her where she is, and creating opportunities for connection and engagement rather than imposing expectations or demands. The family is looking for someone with a growth mindset who is open to learning and implementing the family's childcare philosophies and DIR/Floortime approach.

The nanny will provide constant, developmentally appropriate supervision and support everyday routines including dressing, meals, toileting, and transitions. When she becomes dysregulated, the nanny should be able to remain calm and patient, recognize her cues, and provide compassionate support to help her return to a regulated state.

The nanny will also prepare meals and snacks for the child while following her dairy-free and gluten-free diet. The nanny may accompany her to activities and, when appropriate, therapy appointments, and will communicate and collaborate closely with her parents and therapy team.

Family assistant responsibilities will be secondary to childcare and will include kitchen tidying, laundry for the family, light home tidying and organization, taking out the garbage, and light meal preparation for the family. The family is looking for someone who is proactive and willing to help keep the household running smoothly while always understanding that the child's care is the primary focus of the role.

The nanny will need their own reliable vehicle for commuting, on street parking is available. There are no pets in the household, and the position does not include travel.

Above all, the family is looking for someone who is patient, energetic, engaging, emotionally regulated, and genuinely passionate about working with children. The ideal candidate will be comfortable with a child-led, low-demand approach, have a growth mindset, and be open to learning from the family and therapy team. They hope to find someone who will take the time to truly understand their daughter, celebrate her individuality, and become a trusted and joyful presence in her life.

Requirements:

  • Prior professional nanny experience

  • Experience supporting children who have special needs, ideally children who are nonverbal

  • Patient, compassionate, self-regulated, energetic, and genuinely passionate about working with children

  • Comfortable with a child-led, relationship-based, low-demand approach

  • Openness to learning and implementing DIR/Floortime principles and the family's childcare philosophies

  • Comfort with and ability to learn and respond to nonverbal communication, including gestures, facial expressions, looks, points, and sounds

  • Calm and confident supporting a child through dysregulation, transitions, and non-preferred activities

  • Engaging and playful, with a genuine interest in actively participating in play rather than simply supervising

  • Comfortable supporting dressing, meals, toileting, transitions, and other everyday routines

  • Comfortable accompanying the child to activities and, when appropriate, therapy appointments

  • Willing to collaborate with parents and the child's developmental and therapy team

  • Proactive, organized, flexible, and willing to assist with light household responsibilities

  • Comfortable with kitchen tidying, family laundry, light home tidying and organization, garbage removal, and simple family meal preparation

  • Growth mindset and willingness to continually learn and adapt to the child's evolving needs

  • Excellent references from previous families

  • Legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Pets: None

About the Family:

A warm, welcoming, and collaborative family in Lexington is seeking a compassionate, dependable, and proactive nanny/household manager to support their two wonderful children while helping keep their household running smoothly. They are looking for someone who is calm, flexible, emotionally regulated, and genuinely enjoys building meaningful, long-term relationships with children and their families.

Their oldest child is a sweet, verbal, and engaging fourteen-year-old boy with special needs. He communicates using scripts and gestalt language processing and thrives with caregivers who are patient, observant, and willing to meet him where he is. He loves playing with animal figurines, Matchbox cars, completing puzzles, kicking a soccer ball around outside, and riding his bike. He occasionally experiences meltdowns, which are typically well-managed using established sensory supports and calming strategies. He arrives home from school by bus at approximately 3:30 p.m., enjoys a snack and some downtime with a favorite show, and takes medication around 4:00 p.m. Throughout the week, he participates in occupational therapy at home and attends a recreational activity, but otherwise enjoys a relaxed, low-demand, play-based afternoon routine.

His younger sister is eight years old and is creative, kind, and easygoing. She loves coloring, imaginative play, dress-up, riding her bike, and playing board games. She has a particularly close relationship with her older brother and enjoys spending time with him. She arrives home from school by bus around 4:00 p.m., enjoys a snack and time to relax, and attends soccer three afternoons each week. One parent will typically be responsible for her care, allowing the nanny to focus primarily on her older brother while remaining flexible and collaborative as needed.

Both parents work full-time from separate home offices and are highly involved, supportive, and collaborative. They value open communication, teamwork, flexibility, and caregivers who exercise sound judgment while confidently taking initiative. Because one parent will generally be available and primarily caring for the younger child, the family is seeking someone who enjoys working as part of a team to ensure each child receives individualized attention and support.

The family also has one very friendly, hypoallergenic dog who is a beloved member of the household.

About the Role:

This position offers an excellent balance of childcare and household management responsibilities. During school hours, the nanny will focus on household tasks before transitioning into childcare responsibilities in the afternoon. The primary focus will be supporting the family's fourteen-year-old son through a calm, engaging, and play-based after-school routine while collaborating closely with his parents and therapy team. Responsibilities include preparing healthy meals and snacks, facilitating meaningful and developmentally appropriate activities, encouraging outdoor play and movement, supporting medication routines, and helping implement strategies recommended by his specialists.

The family is seeking a caregiver who enjoys contributing to the overall organization and efficiency of the home. Household responsibilities include kitchen tidying, children's laundry, light home tidying and organization, meal preparation for the children, grocery shopping and meal planning, household errands, preparing materials for ABA activities, collaborating with therapists and specialists to implement best practices, and occasionally observing or shadowing therapy sessions to help maintain consistency across the child's support team.

The ideal candidate is calm, warm, flexible, and naturally proactive. They should be a thoughtful problem-solver who is emotionally regulated, exercises sound judgment and discernment, and approaches challenges with patience and a growth mindset. The family is looking for someone who is organized, dependable, and comfortable working collaboratively with parents and specialists while confidently taking initiative independently. They would love to find someone who is interested in becoming a long-term, trusted member of their family's support system.

Occasional weekend or date night support is strongly preferred. Rare travel to the family's Cape Cod home with advance notice is also preferred.

Requirements

  • Prior professional nanny or nanny/household manager experience preferred

  • Experience supporting neurodivergent children or children with differing developmental needs preferred

  • Warm, patient, engaging, and emotionally intelligent personality

  • Calm, self-regulated, flexible, and able to adapt to changing needs

  • Problem-solving mindset with sound judgment and discernment

  • Strong organizational and household management skills

  • Comfortable collaborating with parents, therapists, and specialists

  • Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

  • Reliable personal vehicle for commuting and on-the-job driving

  • 4-year college degree preferred

  • Excellent professional references

  • Legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Pets: One very friendly, hypoallergenic family dog. Comfort with dogs is important; pet care is not required.

Transportation: The nanny must have their own reliable vehicle for commuting and on-the-job driving. Parking is available at the home.
