We are an international couple who lives with our three children (G6, B4, G1) in the charming area between Wandsworth Common and Clapham Common, just off the popular Northcote Road (SW11).
We are currently looking for a committed, caring and resourceful live-in nanny/housekeeper from August 20th onwards. You will help mum with both running the household and looking after the kids. Mum only works one day/week and will be at home otherwise. Our two older children go to a local school, and our youngest will start nursery (three mornings) in January 2013.
Your duties will include:
• Helping mum with the children before and after school, especially with the toddler (e.g. taking her to the playground while mum is doing homework with the older siblings).
• Being sole charge of the children one day/week when mum is at work.
• Occasionally cooking for the children and doing school runs if needed.
• Being in charge of the house (cleaning, tidying, laundry, ironing – all at a very high standard).
• Babysitting (typically two evenings/week).
Furthermore, we would love you to:
• Be responsible, mature and trustworthy
• Have gained several years of experience in a similar role with small children/toddlers
• Have excellent English language skills
• Ensure a long-term commitment (with a minimum of two years)
• Occasionally travel with us
• Have a valid UK/EU work visa and already live in the UK (be available for a face-to-face interview)
• Be a non-smoker
It would be a plus if you were CRB checked and if you had a current first-aid certificate.
You will live in a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom and your own kitchen (hob, fridge, microwave) in our brand new basement conversion. There is Wifi and you will have your own TV. Our house is c. 7min walking distance to Clapham Junction, which brings you to both Waterloo and Victoria in 5min.
Please send us your full CV, at least two checkable references and your salary expectations in case you are interested in this long-term role.
We are looking forward to hearing from you soon!
