Part Time Nanny
Looking for an experienced nanny to look after our 5 year old and 3 year old, 8:30 till 4pm daily, till 6pm on Thursdays. We live in the Highlands in an area of outstanding beauty. Lochaber is dubbed the “outdoor capital of the UK” and we have incredible opportunities for hikes, mountain biking, climbing, wild swimming, kayaking, etc (literally!) on our doorstep.
Our 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son are fun-loving, characterful children who have been quick to adopt a caring new grown-up in the past.
The job entails childcare plus some housekeeping and cooking. It would be particularly suited to someone who is happy to work independently, who is interested in the outdoors, who is flexible, enthusiastic and self-motivated. Ideally, you can also drive as we live in a remote location.
The above hours are applicable until both kids are at state nursery/school from August 2023 onwards. Thereafter, we will continue to have childcare work opportunities outwith school hours and during holidays, and activities during school hours (9am-3pm) can be negotiated depending on applicants interests and skills. You could for example choose to have a salary cut to devote time to other interests, or you could choose to engage in one of the other projects that we have, that include a hotel renovation, and a permaculture project (both would involve physical work).
We have a well-equipped cottage adjacent to our house, which allows you to be close while affording you space and privacy.
