PartTime Nanny Household Manager

Location: Cambridge, MA Compensation: $32-$40 per hour Commitment Level: Part-time, long-term (one year minimum), live-out Guaranteed Hours: 25 hours per week Schedule: Monday-Friday, split shift: 7:30 AM-9:00 AM and 3:30 PM-6:30 PM Start Date: September 21, 2026 Position Overview A family in Cambridge, MA is seeking an engaged, energetic nanny to care for their two children, ages 5 and 3, in a long-term, live-out position. This role follows a split schedule covering the morning routine and the after-school stretch. The children attend two different schools in neighboring communities, so this is a driving-heavy role: the nanny handles school transportation in her or his own vehicle, with pickups in the mid-to-late afternoon and return to Cambridge. Afternoons are spent helping the children settle in after school, engaging them in active play, and handling children's tasks around the home. The ideal candidate is an active, hands-on caregiver who enjoys getting on the floor and playing, drives confidently in the greater Boston area, and takes initiative without needing direction. The family has one large dog; the nanny has no pet care responsibilities. Summer and school-break weeks may bring slight shifts in timing, with the weekly guarantee held steady.
