Seeking Educated, Warm, Hardworking Nanny

My three kids all have various schools and classes to go to. I cannot give them the individual attention they need without another fun adult around. You must be good with ages 1, 3, and 5. You must be very active. I will not hire someone who sits on the bench to chat with the other nannies while the kids run around by themselves. All three of my kids are fast, both physically and intellectually, so you must be too! We love museums, zoos, and playgrounds all over Manhattan. We almost never take the subway or buses, and never ever take taxis. I walk four miles a day minimum getting my kids to school. This fall with two kids in school the walk will be seven miles a day unless I have someone sharing the responsibility!

The hours are pretty negotiable but the most important time will be from 2:30 until 5 p.m. I'd like you to be able to help me four days a week from 7:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. (so the baby can go to the playground while the big kids get dropped off at school).

I do not have time to talk on the phone or text my friends, and you probably won't either. When the baby is napping, there are meals to be cooked or toys to be picked up. I do have a wonderful housekeeper two days a week, but we have to do laundry at least one or two other days. We do art projects that mess up the whole kitchen, (what fun are they if they don't?) We go outside to the playground and the park five days a week, rain, snow, wind, or shine. We are very active, very busy, and it is really crazy. We read a lot, do puzzles, games, and hide and seek. If you are not charismatic my kids will not listen to you nor will they play with you while I am around; they will just want "mommy, mommy, mommy." Sound interesting? Tell me why you will be good at this job, tell me about your education, and tell me why you think I would like working with you! Please note, we have cats!
