Full-time nanny wanted in Streatham Hill from January

We are looking for a warm, reliable and experienced nanny to care for our son, who will be 8½ months old in January.

This is a full-time position, five days a week, for a minimum of 10 hours per day. The salary is around £16 an hour gross.

We live in a spacious four-bedroom house on a quiet road, with a large open-plan kitchen and a south-facing garden, as well as an additional sitting room/tv space. We are five minutes’ walk from Tooting Bec Common and Streatham High Road, and around 20 minutes’ walk from Balham. The nanny could have access to our car if needed although a car is not essential given we live close to shops / classes / the common etc.

We would love to find someone affectionate, energetic and genuinely interested in supporting Ted’s development. The role will include:

* Planning engaging, age-appropriate activities
* Taking Ted to classes, playgroups and swimming
* Spending time outdoors and making use of the common and our garden
* Preparing his meals and supporting his feeding routine
* Managing his naps and daily routine
* Keeping his play and eating areas tidy
* Taking care of his laundry and other child-related duties

Please note we have two cats who spend most of their time outside - you would not be required to feed them.

Previous professional experience caring for babies of a similar age is essential. Applicants must have an up-to-date enhanced DBS check, paediatric first-aid training and excellent references.

Start date: January 2027 (could look to do settling in over December)
Hours: Monday to Friday, minimum 10 hours per day
Salary: £16 an hour gross
Location: Streatham Hill

We would be open to either live in or live out positions. We live in a four bedroom house and the nanny would have their own bedroom and small bathroom with a shower (not en suite, but the bathroom is directly adjacent to the bedroom). Please get in touch for further details regarding the space/living arrangements.
