Job Description

A family in New York City is seeking a dependable and nurturing part-time nanny to assist with afternoon care for their 20-month-old daughter. This role is designed for someone who enjoys the high energy of the toddler years and can provide a seamless transition from the structured daycare environment to the comfort of home.

The primary objective of this position is to manage the “afternoon gap.” Your workday begins at 3:30 PM with a prompt pickup at the child’s daycare. From there, you will escort her home and oversee her well-being until 6:00 PM. Because this role involves a fixed pickup time, the family requires a caregiver who is exceptionally punctual and organized.

While at home, your responsibilities shift toward active supervision and basic meal preparation. You will be expected to prepare simple, healthy meals or snacks and sit with the child during her feeding time. Beyond the physical tasks of feeding and transport, the ideal candidate will engage the child in age-appropriate play, reading, or quiet activities that help her unwind after her day at school.

This position offers a highly competitive wage for the New York market, with a starting range of $25 to $35 per hour. It is a perfect fit for a local sitter or student who lives or works in Manhattan and is looking for a steady, two-and-a-half-hour daily assignment. By joining this family, you will become a vital part of their daily routine, providing the peace of mind that their daughter is in safe, capable hands during the late afternoon hours.

If you are a compassionate caregiver with a track record of reliability and a genuine love for early childhood development, this consistent part-time role offers an excellent opportunity to work within a supportive home environment.
