The Ideal Sitter for this Job

Are you super creative? Do you love toddlers? This family is looking for a fun nanny who can bring dance parties, singing, and all creative pursuits to their little one. Even at 16 months, she's a total sponge and she's already a big fan of the musical "Six" and "Hamilton" and she also loves Taylor Swift. Because both parents are in the arts, being a fellow art appreciator is important to them. Musical theater lovers, this is the job for you! Beyond that, even though you're creative, they'd still like to find somebody that can tidy up, do the occasional organizational project, and help them with light household chores. Both parents are super busy so this will help them so much! The family would love somebody who speaks Spanish, but it's not required. Include it in your application if you do though!

Schedule

Monday through Friday: 9 A.M. to 4 P.M. They are looking to prioritize candidates that can flex, shift, and/or add an hour or two here and there with advance notice.
