This is an exciting opportunity for a fun, flexible nanny to join a busy, creative household and care for a 6-year-old girl. Our clients are looking for an energetic, proactive, and experienced nanny to provide flexible care for their daughter before and after school, in the evenings, with some weekend support, and extensive travel. A give-and-take approach is essential, as she will be at school during the day, allowing for some downtime while remaining on call.

The little girl is full of energy and loves playing football, doing arts and crafts, baking, going to the park, and playing games. She is learning the violin and has a strong love for music and dance. The ideal nanny will strike a balance between fun and firm, developing a strong rapport with her while ensuring she has a structured schedule and a settled evening routine. You will also support her by liaising with the school, helping with homework, arranging activities and playdates, managing nursery duties, and preparing healthy, balanced meals on days when the chef is not working.

Both parents have busy, demanding roles but like to be hands-on when at home, so they need a nanny who can work in partnership with them. Strong communication skills are essential. You should be flexible, have plenty of initiative, and be comfortable adapting to the family’s schedule, including extensive travel with them when required. You will have Proven professional nanny experience with school aged children and excellent, fully checkable references showcasing reliability and expertise. Up-to-date DBS check and current First Aid certification.

A confident driver is essential, and ideally, you will be able to swim. Separate accommodation is provided nearby. You will be working in a home with other staff, including a housekeeper, chef, and PA, so being a team player is crucial. The family has pet cats, so you must be pet-friendly. You must be happy with extensive travel worldwide. A fantastic opportunity for an experienced nanny to join a dynamic and loving household.

Due to the high volume of applications, only successful candidates will be contacted.
