Hi,
We have a kind, Chinese Mandarin-speaking nanny, Ayi, caring for our son (3 year old) and daughter (almost 11 months old). We are looking to have a nanny share with a family who has a toddler, aged 2-4 years, to play and grow with our son (and with our daughter).
She came with excellent references and is smart, well-educated, organized, very loving, caring and protective. She will cook, play/interact and read to them. The children are learning to speak Chinese. If necessary, the nanny can speak basic English to communicate with the children for clarity.
We would host the children and nanny in our home with a spacious, gated front and backyard, grass and sand play area. We live near the Brooklyn Children's Museum, playground and park and anticipate regular visits to the Children's Museum's arts and crafts activities, plus their science, music and entertainment programs. In addition, we envision playdates and trips to the Botanical Garden, Prospect Park, Zoo, Brooklyn Museum, Underhill park, local library and other neighborhood venues.
We have no pets, allergies or specific dietary restrictions. We provide the kids with organic milk and try to give them organic foods as much as possible.
Her rate is $320/wk per family plus additional expenses as needed (food, activities, etc.). Full time would be around 8 a.m.- 6 p.m. We are willing to consider sharing with two families for scheduled part-time shares.
We are looking for like-minded parents and a harmonious situation. Mom works from home, so there is some additional oversight and flexibility. Please contact us, familyrw@gmail.com, to discuss more details.
Thank you.
