Hi Carolina,
I saw your post. We are looking for a live-in Spanish speaking nanny to start ASAP to work Mon to Thursday. I know that you are not available but if you know anyone who would be interested, please could you ask them to get in touch? Thank you!
All the best in finding something for Wednesdays.
**Live in nanny**
We are a couple looking for a Spanish speaking live-in nanny to look after two children (3 year old girl and 1 year old boy). Working hours will be Monday - Thursday approx. 7:30am to 6pm. Start date end of Feb.
Duties will include:
- All nursery duties (anything to do with taking care of the children)
- Assist with and support the children’s mental and physical development
- 3yo goes to nursery so walking her to nursery and pick up
- Prepare and cook healthy meals for the children
- Children’s laundry and keeping their rooms tidy
- One week day baby-sitting (Sun-Thurs) and one weekend baby-sitting (Fri/Sat). However, we are unlikely to always need these.
- Light house-keeping duties.
The ideal person will be:
- Someone who genuinely loves caring for and interacting with children.
- Previous childcare experience
- Creative, warm, fun and friendly
- Patient, caring and compassionate.
- Responsible, well organised and tidy
- Someone who is pro-active and can use their initiative and common sense
- Willing to commit to at least 1 year
- First aid trained or willing to take a first aid course (at our cost)
Fluency in Spanish and non-smoking is essential! Well spoken English is preferred but doesn't have to be perfect as you will be speaking Spanish to the children and Dad is Spanish.
We live in a nice house in Wimbledon close to the tube and there are lots of baby and toddler activities within walking distance. There will be lots of nannies you will meet here as well as a weekly Spanish baby and toddler group near our house. We also have a friendly cat!
You will have your own double bedroom with wi-fi. You can have your own shower-room or share the family bathroom with the children. Food will be provided. Since the mum will not be working on Fridays, that will be your day off. If you wish to study, there are quite a few English language schools in Wimbledon.
If you are interested in the job, please reply with your CV including full details of experience with dates, age of children looked after, duties carried out and qualifications.
Salary will depend on experience. Successful candidates will need two references as well as a CRB check
