Job Overview: Part-Time Nanny (Greenwich Village)

A professional family in Greenwich Village is seeking a nurturing and reliable Part-Time Nanny to care for their 3-month-old infant. This role is ideal for a local student or a childcare professional looking to supplement their schedule with consistent, low-intensity hours in one of Manhattan’s most desirable neighborhoods.

The family requires a flexible partner who can provide steady weekend support while remaining available for “on-call” needs during the week, such as school closures or parent work travel.

Job Details & Responsibilities

Primary Care & Engagement

Infant Care: Provide specialized care for a 10-week-old, including bottle feeding, diapering, and maintaining nap schedules.
Safety: Maintain a vigilant and safe environment within the home and during local neighborhood walks.
Developmental Play: Engage the infant in age-appropriate activities (tummy time, reading, music) to support early growth milestones.
Communication: Maintain clear, proactive lines of communication with parents regarding the baby’s daily routine and needs.

Requirements & Qualifications

Childcare Passion: A genuine love for working with infants and supporting their developmental journeys.
Reliability: Proven track record of being dependable and punctual, especially for weekend shifts.
Instruction-Oriented: Ability to follow specific parental directions regarding feeding and sleep training protocols.
Flexibility: Willingness to assist periodically during the week for special circumstances (travel or holidays).

Salary, Schedule & Benefits

Employer: Wyndy.com (Private Family)
Location: Greenwich Village, Manhattan (In-person)
Guaranteed Hours: 10 hours per week.
Estimated Hourly Rate: Based on current Manhattan market rates for part-time infant care, pay typically ranges from $25.00 – $35.00 per hour.
Estimated Weekly Salary: $250 – $350 per week (with potential for more during weeks requiring travel coverage).
Schedule: Includes one guaranteed weekend night per week, with fluctuating weekday hours based on family needs.

Why Apply?

This position offers a “foot in the door” with a professional family in a prime location. Because the parents work full-time and travel for business, a nanny who proves themselves reliable and capable with their 3-month-old will likely find themselves as the family’s first choice for additional, higher-paying hours. It is an excellent role for someone who values a stable base of hours without the commitment of a full-time 40-hour week.

Application Information

Qualified candidates should apply via Wyndy.com. When applying, emphasize your specific experience with newborns and your proximity to Greenwich Village, as the family is looking for someone who can easily assist during periodic weekday gaps.
