Afterschool Nanny Position (Bergenfield, NJ)

Start Date: Early December 2026
Location: Bergenfield, NJ
Compensation: $30/hour
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 2:30 PM–6:30 PM
Guaranteed Hours: 20 hours/week

A warm, close-knit family is looking for a kind, gentle nanny to care for their two young children, ages 1.5 and 4, in a part-time, live-out role. Both children are in school in the mornings. You’ll pick up their son from school at 2:30, welcome their daughter home when she’s dropped off at 3:30, and care for both children through the afternoon until a parent gets home. The last half hour of each day goes to tidying up after the afternoon’s activities. The family wants a calm, soft-spoken caregiver who brings patience and warmth to the role and can stay with them for the long term. A cleaning service handles the main housekeeping, so this role is about the children.
