Location: Amsterdam, NY

Start Date: ASAP

Position Overview

A family is seeking an experienced, organized, full-time live-out House Manager / Nanny to care for their 5-year-old son and maintain their home. The role is structured around the school day: mornings and early afternoons are dedicated to household management, organization, and meal preparation, transitioning to childcare in the afternoon.

The child is dropped off at kindergarten by a parent each morning. The nanny will depart for afternoon school pickup — the school is approximately 20 minutes from the home — return home with their son, provide an after-school snack, and engage with him through the late afternoon while finishing dinner. Dinner is ready for the family at 6:00 PM, and the workday ends promptly at 6:00 PM.

The home is approximately 3,000 square feet and sits on six acres. Household tasks follow a planned daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly schedule — for example, window cleaning or pantry organization — and are completed at a comfortable pace throughout the day. Organizing projects are a meaningful part of this role. A weekly housekeeper handles deep cleaning; there is no overlap in responsibilities. Dogs are part of the household, and additional adults reside on the property. On-site parking is available. This is a long-term position.

  • Guaranteed 40 hours per week
  • 1 week paid vacation
  • 1 week paid sick/personal time
  • 7 paid holidays
  • Employer contributes 60% toward health insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match up to 4%

  • Laundry
  • Dishes and kitchen upkeep
  • Tidying and organizing throughout the home
  • Organizing projects (pantry, closets, seasonal turnover)
  • Maintaining the household task calendar

Requirements

  • Valid driver's license
  • Comfortable driving a child daily
  • Current CPR and First Aid certification
  • Experience combining childcare with household organization
  • Highly organized, tidy, and detail-oriented
  • Comfortable in a home with dogs
