Nanny
We are looking for a warm, engaging, and proactive Nanny/PA/Family Assistant for our lovely returning clients with three bright, kind children aged 12, 10 and 5. The family are looking for someone switched-on, energetic, fun and exceptionally organised.
This is very much a nanny-first position with added PA and family-assistant duties. The ideal candidate will love spending time with the children, playing with them after school, supporting their development, planning fun and engaging activities during the holidays, and gently encouraging increasing independence as they grow.
The family's youngest child is a cheerful and imaginative 5-year-old girl who loves outdoor adventures, creative play, Lego and reading. Her older brothers, aged 10 and 12, are bright and engaging boys with different interests. The younger boy is sporty and active, enjoying tennis, football and table tennis, while his older brother is passionate about reading, chess and is very independent. Both boys also share a love of cooking and baking.
The family are down to earth, warm, loyal, and respectful employers looking for someone who will become part of the team long-term with a ‘can-do’ attitude and happy to ‘muck in when needed.
If you have the fun-factor, love a list and are passionate about working with school-age children please get in touch. Live-in accommodation in London could be provided for the right candidate.
