Permanent daily Nanny in Queens Park, London

We are looking for a nurturing, flexible and warm relaxed nanny to have sole charge of an almost 2-year-old little girl and her 4-year-old brother starting at the end of April. This is a full-time sole charge position, and they would love to find a long-term nanny.

The boy attends nursery on 3 mornings and 2 full days and he will start school in September. His little sister does not attend nursery as the family prefer to have the one-to-one care of a nanny for her until she starts school in September 2024. Both children are sweet, fun and they love to be engaged in a fun, imaginative and positive way.

The family are looking for a kind and calm nanny who loves being active and who genuinely loves their job and spending time engaging with children. They would love their nanny to offer advice and support as their children reach new stages and work in a team with them.

The parents would like to find a fluent English-speaking nanny to become part of their family. Ideally, they would like someone who is also enjoys cooking healthy meals for the children. Both parents will work from home some days, so they want a nanny who is happy for them to get a cuddle when they take a break.

You must be COVID vaccinated and already be working in London. They also need their nanny to travel on holiday with them (once or twice in the year) to the South of France and stay for two weeks in the summer. You will always have your own room and bathroom in France with lots of privacy in their family home there.
