Overview

A family in Madison, NJ is looking for a dependable, long-term part-time nanny for their two children, a 9-year-old son and a 13-year-old daughter. The nanny will run the afternoons. That means picking the kids up from school about 10–15 minutes from home (some days are covered by carpool), driving them to sports and play dates, and keeping the household on track with cooking, laundry, and tidying. Driving is a big part of the role, so the family provides a vehicle and parking. The home is on a busy street, so the nanny needs to stay alert to traffic safety. The family keeps a screen-free household and values someone organized, proactive, and comfortable with both a school-age child and a teen. In summer the children attend camps, and the schedule stays close to the school-year routine. A cleaning service handles periodic deep cleaning.
