- Helping keep the household organized and running smoothly
- From 3:00-6:00 PM, the role is focused on care for both children, alongside a parent or grandparent.

The Ideal Candidate:
- Warm, positive, caring, and patient
- Comfortable working collaboratively alongside Mom and another nanny
- Interested in child development and learning
- Organized, responsible, and attentive to detail
- Comfortable learning about the older child's individual care needs
