All About the Job
Family Concierge is partnering with exceptionally organized and professional executive parents based in Pittsford, New York to hire a confident and emotionally intelligent Nanny-Family Assistant to support their three adolescent children’s active lifestyles. The role’s core hours focus on guiding a 13-year-old girl and 10-year-old twins through an established after school routine that includes coordinating transportation to and from after school activities, light homework help, and allowing age-appropriate independence while respecting the parent’s well-defined expectations. In addition to this role, the family requires an efficient steward of household duties including laundry, errands, meal prep, and grocery shopping.
