Nanny
We are looking to find a positive, energetic, patient & kind nanny for our three children G9, B7 and G2.
We also have a 17 year old step daughter in Australia who spends most holidays with us and whom we visit every year in Sydney.
Emphasis will be on G9 who has mild learning difficulties. She was diagnosed with dyspraxia and needs some extra support. We need someone super motivated to stay on the ball and make sure she is constantly pushed and doesn’t fall behind.
The ideal nanny would have a background in teaching with an understanding and knowledge of Key Stage 2 and SEN. The role will suit someone proactive and patient with a caring and positive approach.
We have a live in housekeeper so no cooking or laundry required – just encouraging the children to put their plates up etc and building a good working relationship with the housekeeper.
Lots of travel in this role including Australia and Switzerland! Around 4-5 months of the year will be abroad.
