More details below:
We are a welcoming American family with baby 2 due in February. I will be on maternity leave, but would like a loving nanny to care primarily for our sweet 22 month old son, Theo. I would also like an extra pair of hands in helping with the new baby as well. Our house is on Grandison Road, between the commons in Clapham, just off the children's park.
We would like someone energetic, fun, creative and who genuinely loves children and understands their development. Our son is such a happy and smiley child and we would like a nanny who is comfortable giving lots of cuddles. At the same time, we feel that good manners and structure are really important and we would like someone who is confident in using positive discipline to encourage good behaviors. He is going through his toddler phase, pushing boundaries, so it's important that we find someone experienced, confident and very patient in that regard.
He is also a very active and curious boy, so its important that he gets enough physical and play time every day!
Theo has a very established sleep schedule (naps from 1-3pm daily and sleeps from 7pm until we wake him at 8am). Duties include everything to do with his care (playing/reading, taking him to classes, organizing play dates as you see fit, cooking/freezing/feeding healthy foods, plus washing up, his laundry, and keeping the nursery/kitchen/living areas tidy after use. Depending on hours, we may also need help doing the bath and bed routine.
We are looking for someone to start in January/Feb on a temporary basis until mid-April. We are very open to nannies who would like to bring their own children to work.
Excellent recent references please. Relevant trainings and track record of interest in children (ie, degree in Child Psych, daycare admin, etc) would be a big plus.
Please email CV's and references directly! Thanks.
