An experienced Temporary Live-In Nanny is required near Chichester to care for two young children, before accompanying the family to Dubai for four weeks to help them settle into their new home.

Job Summary

A warm and welcoming family near Chichester are looking for a friendly, proactive Live-In Nanny to support them during their relocation overseas. The role will initially be based in West Sussex for approximately three months, followed by four weeks in Dubai, helping the family settle into their new surroundings. The family have two children, aged four years and nine months. Mum works part-time and is very involved, so the role will involve a mixture of shared and sole-charge care. The nanny should be confident managing both children, maintaining their routines and providing practical support around the home. The family employ a housekeeper, and their current nanny will be available for a handover in December. Hours are approximately 7.00am–7.00pm, five days per week, with some flexibility around half-days. Christmas bank holidays will be off, although support is required between Christmas and New Year. There is a swimming pool at the UK property and no pets. A confident driver is essential, with their own car desirable but not a requirement.

Job Specification

• Provide attentive care for both children, particularly the baby.
• Manage feeding, naps and daily routines.
• Organise age-appropriate activities and outings.

• Prepare children's meals and undertake nursery duties.
• Work collaboratively with Mum and household staff.
• Drive the children as required.
• Accompany the family to Dubai and help the children settle into their new home.

Candidate Specification

• Experienced nanny with excellent baby and preschool knowledge.
• Warm, nurturing and proactive.
• Confident with shared and sole-charge care.
• Confident driver essential; own car desirable.
• Flexible, organised and adaptable.
• Safety-conscious around a swimming pool.
• Happy to travel internationally.
