They have a 2-year-old son and a new baby on the way this October! Their son will start Montessori school full-time in the fall, and the family will have the support of a night nanny beginning in October as they transition to life as a family of four. This candidate can anticipate tag teaming with the mom to care for the newborn while the toddler is at school and support the care of both children on the weekends.
• These dual-career parents are in and out of the house on a regular basis, so a candidate who is comfortable collaborating daily with parents and their other nanny is important.

The family hopes to work with a nanny who considers professionalism, discretion, reliability, and open and honest communication as pillars of their character. A step-in and step-out intuition will also be appreciated to both take the lead and be a guide and resource, as well as let the parents take the lead and jump in during the day for fun activities.
