Live in Nanny in Maida Vale, London

We would like to find a permanent full-time live-in nanny in the Maida Vale/Little Venice area to start in the next month.

We're seeking a warm, kind, honest and responsible nanny to help with taking care of our 2 little boys (aged 3 and 6 months). The hours will be approx 54 hours per week with occasional babysitting (Mon - Thurs night only and won't be used every week). Additional babysitting will be paid as extra. We would also like the nanny to be willing to travel abroad with us on holiday eventually.

Nanny duties include: washing/sterilising baby bottles, preparing formula and feeding baby, helping with the weaning process, changing nappies, encouraging developmental play with both children, maintaining a routine that works for both children, taking to/from nursery, cooking healthy meals, children's laundry, keeping child-related areas tidy/clean, taking children for walks/fresh air/socialising (someone who knows other nannies in the local area and who can organise playdates would be great).

We would like to find someone who genuinely enjoys contributing to our children's development and with a can-do attitude who's ready to muck-in alongside our busy family.

The accommodation provided will be a large double bedroom ensuite (with shower) on its own floor but a shared kitchen with the family.

Salary dependent on experience.

If the candidate can also help with housekeeping/cooking for the family that would be great but not compulsory. The key quality we're looking for is a warm nurturing nanny for our 2 boys.

Must have:
Warm, patient and friendly manner
Clean and tidy
Min. 5 years relevant childcare experience (MUST have infant experience)
Dog friendly
Non-smoker
Own car would be a plus
