Second-time parents are seeking support with their newborn twins, due in early to mid-August, and would like assistance to begin as soon as possible.
The babies are expected to be breastfed, and the family is looking for someone confident in supporting mum with this journey, including feeding guidance and reassurance where needed.
There is an older child in the family who will be attending nursery during the day and will not require supervision, but would love to be involved where possible.
The ideal candidate will be experienced in supporting families with twins, confident in working closely with a new twin mother, and able to help guide the family towards a gentle, baby-led routine. Up-to-date knowledge of current best practices and NHS guidelines is essential. It would also be a huge bonus if the candidate is available for occasional overnight support.
The family are hoping to welcome a nanny when the twins are around 3 months old.
