Looking for someone who can commit through the school year and ideally longer. FAMILY 3-month-old baby and a 4.5-year-old (school M-F mornings). Primary focus is the baby, plus help with school drop-off/pick-up, holidays, and occasional evenings. Mom is home and involved — you'd be hands-on with the baby's daily care, with mom deciding on activities/classes and nearby to collaborate. Supportive partnership, not solo coverage.

Wednesdays 8 AM-12 PM required; other mornings most helpful; occasional evenings a plus. Paid for scheduled hours even if plans change. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS - $25-30/hour based on experience (higher end for early childhood ed background + strong infant experience) - 1-2 weeks PTO plus major holidays; paid sick leave per NY law - Modest rate increase during Hamptons weeks (live-in) LOCATION Starts Midtown East (E 50s), likely moving to UES within about 6 months. Summers largely in the Hamptons — ideally 5 days/week live-in (preferred, not required). Driving a plus for camp pickup/errands; car provided. REQUIREMENTS - Experience with young babies required; references required - Strong English; French or Bengali a plus - Non-smoker; reliable, warm, proactive, comfortable taking initiative TO APPLY Please send a brief intro, relevant experience, availability, and references.
