KP639 - Long-Term Newborn Care Specialist - TriBeCa/ Michigan

Overview:

The schedule will be a guaranteed 12 hours per night (likely 7pm-7am), 7 days per week. The family have a second primary residence in Michigan (MI), where they spend 50% of their time. This opportunity is open to both live-in and live-out candidates.

Responsibilities:

• Prioritizing the safety and well-being of the baby at all times
• Implementing an effective sleep routine that the parents can follow once the term ends
• Providing practical tools, as well as general support and assistance, where possible (given the nighttime schedule)
• Candidates should be willing to offer their professional advice and gentle guidance but ultimately respect the parents’ wishes - they do not want to be steamrollered into doing things a certain way

Qualifications:

• Must have at least 5-8 years' verifiable experience working as a newborn care specialist
• Must have experience working nights
• Candidates should be calm, gentle and flexible
• It would be a huge plus if candidates were able to drive (so that they may be independent when the family are in MI and elsewhere) - the family will provide a car for the candidate’s use.

Requirements:

• US passport, Green Card or EAC
• Up to date on RSV/ Tdap and MMR vaccinations
• Must be CPR certified
• Be willing to travel back and forth to MI and also travel elsewhere domestically and potentially internationally
• Available to commit to the full term
• In time, the family may extend the candidate’s hours, with notice, so it would be great if candidates were open to this.
• Must be pet friendly (the family have a very friendly Toy Poodle)

Salary and Benefits:

• The family are offering a competitive rate for the perfect candidate
