Travel-Ready, Spanish Or German Speaking Nanny/Family Assistant Needed For International Family In SoHo

An on-the-go, international family based in NYC is seeking a warm, travel-ready Spanish-or-German-speaking nanny/family assistant to join their family as they welcome their second child this spring!

• Location: SoHo, NYC
• Ages of children: Almost 3 years old
• Start date/Contract dates: April 2022!
• Schedule: Full-time, guaranteeing 40-50 hours per week with the general schedule falling on Tuesday through Saturday between 8am and 6pm. Flexibility for evenings, weekends, and travel will be asked and appreciated with advanced notice!
• Compensation: The family is offering $30-35/hour based on the 50+ hour/week schedule, which equates to an annualized base compensation of $83-100+k/year dependent on experience.
• Benefits: The family is open to providing benefits including paid time off, paid holidays, health insurance and/or a health insurance stipend, relocation assistance, matching 401k contributions, gym membership, and a MetroCard based on candidate need and the total compensation package.
• Live-in/Live-out: Live-in or live-out. If live-in, an apartment adjacent to the family's home will be provided in NYC. Private accommodations at all other locations, including the family's home in Miami, will be provided when traveling. The family is happy to consider live-out candidates local to NYC.

Daily environment:

• This friendly family of three, along with their senior dog, are relocating back to NYC from Miami as they welcome their newest addition in May 2022! This family describes themselves as fun and laid-back - laughing is a big part of their lives, and they don’t like to take life too seriously.
• They travel frequently for work within the United States, often visiting their second home in Miami, as well as traveling to Europe and Mexico frequently. Both parents have different cultural backgrounds, and they speak Spanish and German in their household. The parents are in and out of the house during the day, and a candidate who is adaptable, collaborative, worldly, and loves to travel will fit well into their dynamic!
• Their gentle and kind 2-year-old son will be turning 3 this coming March. He attends a local preschool and absolutely loves it. When he’s not in school, being active and running around outside is his preferred activity.

Ideal candidate:

• This position is ideal for a candidate who is experienced with infants and preschoolers, travel-ready, engaging, and gentle! Because Spanish and German are spoken in the home, a candidate who speaks one of the two languages will be key to keeping the flow in this trilingual home environment.
• A candidate who brings a professional and collaborative approach and is happy to divide and conquer with parents in caring for the children, keeping things organized around the home, helping with light housekeeping, caring for the dog, assisting with meal prepping, cooking, and grocery shopping, and planning fun family events such as birthday parties will be appreciated.
• The parents are hopeful to find a candidate who can be a part of their family unit, and be truly present with their children while at work, prioritizing play over screen time and phone use. They are open and happy to work with a candidate who would be relocating to NYC!

Must haves:

• 3 years of professional childcare experience
• Valid passport
• Experience with the newborn through toddler stages, and the associated developmental milestones
• Flexibility to travel domestically and internationally with the family
• Comfortable working with parents in the home
• Ability and willingness to assist with common household tasks and errands
• Dog Friendly!
• Fluency in Spanish and/or German is a very strong preference
• Fully vaccinated and boosted (when eligible) against COVID-19 prior to start date in accordance with applicable laws
