Family and Household Dynamics

A peek behind the front door...

Children's Ages: Care will be for six school-aged children, ranging from 3rd through 8th grade.
About the Children:
  • This is a lively and close-knit group of six school-aged children with a wonderful mix of personalities, interests, and activities. All children are in school from approximately 8:00 AM-3:00 PM, with one child finishing around 4:00 PM. Afternoons are filled with activities, homework, chores, and time together.
  • The children are involved in ballet, baseball, soccer, outdoor play, and other interests. One child is pursuing ballet at a serious level, while another is a dedicated travel soccer player. The group includes both outgoing and more reserved personalities, along with children who are energetic, sensitive, creative, and exceptionally bright.
  • One child has a mild autism diagnosis and is highly social, gifted, and very bright. Candidates should be comfortable supporting a neurodivergent child with a strengths-based and positive approach.
  • A successful candidate will enjoy working with a larger sibling group and be confident navigating the energy, personalities, and logistics of a busy household.
About the Family:
  • The parents are experienced in working with household staff and value teamwork, flexibility, and strong communication. Their current nanny has been with the family for three years, and the relationship has worked especially well because of her flexibility and team-oriented approach.
  • The family describes themselves as fun, active, and very open communicators. Winters often include skiing, while summers involve several out-of-state family trips.
  • The family is hoping to build another long-term relationship with a Family Assistant who can become a trusted and dependable part of the household for years to come.
About the Pets:
  • The family has two dogs, a French Bulldog and a Yellow Lab - all candidates must be pet friendly.
  • The Family Assistant may occasionally be asked to help transport the dogs to the veterinarian for their annual exams as needed.
  • Pet sitting while the family is out of town would be a nice bonus but is not required.
Additional Notes:
  • EX: This family has a great relationship with their current nanny, who has worked for them for 2+ years but is relocating. They are looking forward to welcoming in a new nanny to their home - someone who will be a part of their parenting team - very soon.
