About the Family

A warm and loving family in SoHo is seeking a professional, proactive, and nurturing nanny to care for their sweet and alert infant beginning in July. Their baby is bottle-fed, engaging more with the world each day, and beginning to settle into consistent developmental rhythms and routines. The family is looking for a nanny who genuinely enjoys caring for infants and who brings a calm, positive, and joyful energy into the home each day.

Both parents work full-time, with Dad working from an office daily and Mom splitting her time between a home office and an external studio space. The family values professionalism, warmth, discernment, reliability, and strong communication and hopes to build a long-term relationship with someone who will become a trusted and supportive presence in their child’s life.

The family would love to find a nanny who speaks French or is comfortable incorporating French language exposure into the child’s day-to-day routines, though French fluency is preferred and not required.

About the Role

This role will focus on providing attentive, developmentally appropriate care for the family’s infant while helping maintain a calm, organized, and well-functioning household environment. The ideal nanny is naturally proactive, has strong infant instincts, high stamina, and takes pride in creating a peaceful and nurturing atmosphere while supporting the baby’s developmental growth and routines.

The nanny will facilitate enriching, screen-free activities throughout the day including walks, reading, tummy time, sensory play, classes, library outings, and other developmentally supportive experiences that encourage exploration and learning. The family appreciates a nanny who is engaging, thoughtful, and excited to support developmental milestones during infancy and beyond.

Child-related household responsibilities include:

Children’s laundry
Bottle cleaning and sanitation
Meal prep for the child
Kitchen tidying
Light home tidying and organization

The family especially values someone who takes a “clean-as-you-go” approach to the kitchen and child-related spaces and who contributes positively to the overall flow and organization of the home. There are no household dietary restrictions or allergies.

Prior professional nanny experience
1–2 years of in-home infant experience required
