A lovely family in Chelsea is looking for a looking for a positive, flexible Live-in Nanny with a warm personality to help care for their two boys - 2.5 years & 9 months (b. Nov 2024).The nanny needs to have a relaxed yet professional approach - they will ideally have had longevity with previous families and experience with children of similar ages. The family's current nanny has been with them for 2 years and is leaving to go on maternity leave. The nanny must be a fluent English speaker and ideally there will be a handover period of a few weeks to transition care to the new nanny. The position is to start in October.The children are happy and in good routines. This is a shared care role with the mother and both parents are very involved in the lives of their children - the father works from home in London and in Barbados.
  • The role is 5 days per week, 07:00 - 19:00 with some flexibility for evening cover (paid as overtime) and in the event that the family need to travel or need sole charge, proxy care for the children would be required. There is some flexibility with the 2 days off per week - these will be given as consecutive days and usually at the weekend, but this may vary when the family is overseas.
Our clients are based between London and Ireland and they travel extensively, in particular spending from approximately November until March/April in Barbados (where they have a property directly on the beach). The nanny would be required to travel with the family and so must be a confident flyer.All nursery duties are required to be completed by the nanny including laundry, keeping children's areas (bedrooms, playrooms etc) tidy as well as preparing fresh nutritious meals for the children. In London the family has a housekeeper twice a week, in Ireland they have a full time housekeeper and in Barbados they have a full time housekeeping staff and a chef (who also prepares meals for the children and nanny).The nanny must be a confident swimmer and enjoy being active with charges, and a driver is preferable but not essential, but nanny must like dogs, as the family has a labrador at their home in Ireland.The nanny would have their own private bedroom and bathroom and in London and Barbados, in Ireland the nanny has their own separate nanny flat. The nanny is able to stay in their room/apartment on their off days or even vacation if they wish.For more details of this lovely opportunity we can be contacted on: 0207 610 9218; or please send your fully up-to-date CV, references and compelling covering application with why you are suited to this appointment to: info@nanniesofstjames.comSole Charge Shared
