Qualified Rota Nanny / Educator in NYC Area & Hudson Valley, NY, USA

High-Level Teaching Required | Project-Based Learning | Dynamic Family Environment
The Opportunity:
A warm, high-end family is seeking a Rotational Educator–Nanny with a formal teaching background (required) to join their household team. This role supports one school-aged child with nuanced learning and regulation needs and requires a professional who can confidently move between leading education and providing exceptional nanny care.
The family is relocating primarily to the New York area, with significant time spent upstate in the Hudson Valley. The upstate residence may represent the majority of the time, though the final ratio between NYC and upstate living is still evolving.
This is not a tutoring role. This is not support-only homeschooling. This is a leadership role for an educator who can design curriculum, think creatively, and confidently guide a child’s intellectual and emotional development — while remaining adaptable to a household where needs can shift quickly.
