Hi there
We are looking for an experienced and organised nanny to look after our 7 year old (girl) and 5 year old (boy), for c.35 hours per week, over 5 weekdays. We live in a 5 bedroom house in Wimbledon SW19 7BA. Both parents work full time and are looking for a mature and reliable person to support them with childcare:
When: ideally 7-9am and 2-7pm, Monday to Friday during term-time (with longer hours during holiday-time if you wanted) ... however we can be flexible to suit the right candidate (we have grandparents who can help out, and/ or can start in the office a little later). For example we could also do part-time afternoons only for 25 hours pw if you preferred.
During holiday time, we would usually spread the same c.35 hours per week over 3 full days, and could do 35+ if it made sense.
Duties:
- Managing kid’s calendars (including school and other activities)
- Drop offs and pick ups
- Tutoring kids with homework and any projects - this is quite important
- Cooking and mealtimes with the children
- Ensuring good manners, discipline and overall a loving, caring environment
- General tidiness of common areas and kid’s rooms (we have a separate weekly cleaner)
- Loading and unloading dishwasher daily and washing the kids' clothes
- Live-out is preferred, but if you require live-in then let's discuss as we have a separate room and bathroom on the top floor of the house
Requirements:
- Experienced driver is a must (can use our car if preferred)
- Non-smoker a must
- Minimum three years of experience in childcare, preferably sole-charge and with children c.5-10 years old
Start date: we can be flexible for an immediate start, but ideally no later than end August.
And a little about us: our 7yo daughter loves chatting, pop music, dancing, reading, drawing, tree-climbing and bike riding. Our 5yo son loves football, dancing, learning about sea creatures, chess and eating burritos. (Actually, they both love eating burritos ...). And we parents are from Sri Lanka and Australia and interested in photos, theatre and reading.
Hope to hear from you soon!
