Rota Nanny, Chelsea (shared care position )

Schedule: Rota: week on / week off (can also be Mon-Fri live in for the right candidate)

This loving family is looking for a live-in rota nanny for their 2 children, baby girl (born May 2023), and 3 month old boy.  This is a shared-care role, where both parents are present and involved with the children. The family would like a nanny who has experience in shared-care roles and in caring for babies of a similar age as well as someone who has an interest in routine (particularly around sleep), child development and milestones.

The nanny should be caring, reliable, honest, energetic, highly organised.  The family would like this to be a long-term appointment and are looking for candidates ideally with rota experience, but also with longevity in previous roles.

In order for their baby to both socialise and be stimulated with age and stage appropriate activities, the parents are keen for their baby to go to classes / activities as well as to the park etc. They would also want the nanny to provide a programme of developmental activities at home.  Communication with both parents and the other nanny are paramount.

The nanny will work opposite another rota nanny who is already in post. The rota is 24 hours per day, 7 days on 7 days off. The nanny will share a room and private bathroom with the eldest child for the first 3-6 months.   There is some travel in the role where the family will be accompanied by one of the nannies.  Destinations include USA and Europe.

The family employs many staff, including a chef, housekeeper and drivers - the nanny will have responsibility for normal nursery duties including cooking freshly prepared nutritious food for both children.

A car driver is not essential but a plus. There are no pets.
