Driving Required: No

Job Reference: JOB-5222 EO

This busy family is looking for a hands on, proactive nanny for their 2.5 year old and 5 month old. 

• Start: ASAP
• Location: London
• Working Hours: 7am–7pm, Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday, with flexibility
• Salary: DOE

Overview:

The family have good routines in place and are looking for someone who is happy to muck in and become part of family life. General day-to-day life will involve classes, playdates, park trips, nursery duties, and cooking for the children. 

The nanny will work alongside the maternity nurse, who will remain until November, allowing for a thorough handover and transition, particularly around the baby’s care.

The toddler is starting nursery, 3 mornings a week, so you will help with the settling in period for her. 

They also have a 14 year old who is independent, but may need occasional oversight, especially when the parents are away. Both parents travel frequently for work, so the role requires flexibility and a happy, hands-on approach.

The family has two friendly dogs, so an animal lover is essential.

Duties included but not limited to:

• Managing the children’s daily routines
• Taking G2.5 to nursery and activities
• Organising and attending classes, including music and gymnastics
• Caring for the baby and attending his scheduled classes
• All nursery duties
• Supporting the family during travel and periods of proxy parenting
• Travelling with the family as required
• Helping with the family’s two dogs when needed

Benefits

• Separate basement flat with own kitchenette
• Guest room available when undertaking proxy parenting
• Driving not essential, but would be a bonus

Key Criteria

• Experienced nanny with strong baby and toddler experience
• Confident caring for multiple children
• Happy to undertake travel and proxy parenting
• Flexible and adaptable around parents’ work schedules
• Easy-going, warm and willing to muck in
• Comfortable with dogs and happy to walk them
