Why This Role Stands Out
You’ll work for a stable, thoughtful family on the Upper West Side with a consistent afternoon schedule, 20 guaranteed hours per week, and a compensation package that reflects what a true household professional is worth.

About the Family
This warm, established family lives on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and is looking for a long-term household professional to be a true partner in their home. They have one child — a 7-year-old boy — and a medium-sized dog. They value independence, reliability, and someone who brings genuine warmth and high standards to everything they do.
They are not looking for a babysitter. They are looking for a professional who takes pride in their craft — someone who can run the afternoon and household with confidence, creativity, and care.

About the Child
Their son is 7 years old, curious, and active. He thrives with a caregiver who encourages independence, gets him outside and exploring the city, and brings real energy to after-school time. He benefits from someone who plans ahead, keeps things moving, and genuinely enjoys being present with him.
