Newborn Care Jobs for New York’s Savviest Specialists

Our matchmaking works because we consider the needs of all parties involved. Our clients understand the tremendous rewards of hiring a skilled Newborn Care Specialist to guide their child’s formative months. We want to get to know you too, so we can not only accurately convey the skills you offer, but so that we understand with which family dynamic you’ll thrive and feel the greatest reward.

Our NCS must adhere not only to our standards but also to the recommended practices set by the International Nanny Association (INA) the umbrella organization of the in-home childcare industry.

Please see the INA’s ‘Standards of care for all applicants’.

Our client families are predominantly based in NYC and the surrounding Tri-State areas.

NCS are the exception and may apply from outside our service area for opportunities seeking ‘24’s’ (round the clock coverage). Many NYC families have limited space to house those from out of state when seeking 12 hr. day or night shifts, in which instance, NCS candidates with their own local housing generally offer the most appeal.

Rates vary based on experience and education. Currently, we see hourly rates between

$40-$50+ for skilled and trained NCS.

There are many reasons why we’re unable to proceed with an application. A variety of factors are considered such as a candidate’s location, availability, prior experience, longevity, reference quality, and compensation hopes. Professionalism is assessed throughout our process, and we reserve the right to discontinue representation at any time throughout the application process and beyond. Only a small percentage of applicants are accepted into our network for these and other reasons. We do not share references with you or disclose any information provided by your former employees with you.

While this is great experience, we seek career-minded nannies with a desire to work in the field long-term and who have previously provided a full spectrum of private in-home care with a minimum of 5 years of experience. Applicants must have references that speak to a broad knowledge of child development and experience with related tasks such as children’s housekeeping, meal preparation, and laundry.

Congratulations on continuing your education. Knowledge of best practices is critical in the role of an NCS. Of course, your hands-on experience is equally important; therefore, we seek a minimum of 3000 hours or 3 years of cumulative experience with newborns for representation.

Our vetting process requires speaking with a minimum of three prior employers in recent NCS positions. Supporting letters of recommendation are wonderful and we encourage you to include them in your profile.

We strongly advocate for legal pay for all Childcare professionals. Our client families agree to adhere to all state & local tax and labor laws. To learn why legal pay matters and the benefits it provides you, click here.
