Salary £65,000 to £90,000 gross per year

Burlington Nannies are on the search for two educated, professional, and highly experienced rota nannies for a returning client of ours. They are based in Kensington and have a residence in the countryside where they spend the holidays. Occasional travel to other destinations. This is a one-week rotation. Starting at 6am through to 8/8.30pm when the children go to bed. Your accommodation when on duty is a two-bedroom apartment five minutes from the family home. This is shared with your counterpart, and you are welcome to stay when you are off duty.

You will be caring for three children aged 3, 5 & 7 years old. The youngest does have her own nanny who is there as a support, and she attends nursery. You will also work alongside an after-school tutor/governess.

You will be responsible for all areas of the day-to-day care. Assisting the children with morning routines, which will include washing, dressing, breakfast, and school runs. Diary and wardrobe management. Organise play dates, activities, and outings. Encourage good manners, social skills, and good behaviour. Assist with homework; liaise with teachers and general children’s admin.

This is a fully staffed household, and everyone pulls together. The housekeepers are responsible for the laundry, and there is a chef who cooks for the family. You will not have to cook, but it will be required for you to heat the food prepared and oversee mealtimes. Your day will end with the bedtime routine and encourage the children to read.

The children are a delight to spend time with. Very polite and courteous. They have a balanced upbringing and love to play chess, games, musical instruments, and learn additional languages.

They have very busy and active days, so you must be on the ball and highly organised with excellent communication skills.

The ideal candidate should ideally be a native English speaker, as English is not the family's first language. You must be educated to a degree level and have the confidence to support the children’s education and development. This is a formal household, but the parents are very communicative and show a strong interest in their children without being suffocating. This is a position for someone who is a career nanny who is dedicated and committed to their chosen profession.

In return, you will be offered a generous salary dependent on your experience and education. A respectful and communicative family to work for.
