An outdoorsy, active, kind, and caring family of 3 in Brooklyn Heights is seeking a full-time, live-out nanny beginning in late April/May when mom returns to work after maternity leave. Their son will be 6 months at start; the schedule will be Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:30pm, with occasional flexibility to work late if one parent is traveling.
