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.

Why W-2 Matters
This position is fully legal and on the books. The family will provide a W-2 and comply with all applicable federal, New York State, and household employment laws — including overtime. This means you have real employment protections, documented income for loans and housing applications, and a professional employment record you can stand behind.
If you’ve been paid off the books before and want to work for a family who does it right — this is that family.
