About the job

Full time live-out (or live in) nanny needed, Wandsworth Common, London. Must be either fluent in German or completely fluent in English.
Kind and friendly, professional family are looking for a live-out Nanny to look after their twin toddlers, B & G, who will be 18mth by the start date of early January 2022.
Their current nanny has been with them for over 5 years and it has been happy and successful on both sides. 2 older children aged 4 and 6 yrs, are at school and cared for by their after school nanny.
"We are a German family and hence a German speaking nanny would be ideal, although not absolutely required. Fluency in English is important. We are looking for a full-time nanny live-out, who is kind, loves children, and can care for the kids, entertain them, play with them, prepare their meals, arrange playdates, etc. Someone full of energy and with an engaging personality would be great. Ideally the nanny would be able to drive and/or ride a bicycle.
The children are absolutely wonderful and really fun to hang out with. We need someone reliable, responsible and who loves children. Ideally some educational background in child care and/or education, and nanny experience.

Both parents are working full time.
Most importantly we are looking for someone kind and caring, who loves children, has an engaging personality, is reliable and dependable and will take good care of our children. The twins (boy and a girl) will be 18 months old, so experience with babies/toddlers is important.
