More details:  

A family in Montclair is seeking a temporary, live-out nanny to care for their nine-month-old twin girls, with occasional duties involving their three-year-old son. The preferred schedule is full days Monday through Thursday (from 7:30 am until 4:30 pm) and half days on Fridays. 

Duties include:  

Providing daytime care for the twin girls while both parents are at work. Planning age- appropriate activities for neurodevelopment and motor development (the family is currently doing tummy time, eye tracking, reading, singing, etc.) The toddler is enrolled in full-day preschool, and parents will manage drop-off and pickup. Occasionally, care for all three children may be required; however, the primary focus will be on caring for the twins. Household tasks include light food prep for the children, laundry for the children, and maintaining basic cleanliness and organization in the areas designated for the children.

Ideal nanny:   

The ideal nanny for this family is patient, engaging, trustworthy, and willing to take the children outside. The family would also welcome a caregiver who balances their own expertise and approaches to childcare with Mom and Dad’s preferences and parenting style.  

About the children:  

One of the twins has a cheerful, playful, and schedule-oriented temperament and is generally easygoing. The other twin is more snuggly, alert, and responsive during play sessions.

This three-year-old is curious, energetic, playful, detail-oriented, and expressive. He is very affectionate and interactive with the twins, though he may occasionally seek additional attention. He enjoys all types of vehicles and is very active and inquisitive. He has a fondness for playgrounds, sprinklers, sidewalk chalk, and coloring activities.
