An excellent opportunity for an experienced, warm and nurturing part-time Nanny (to then transition to full time) to join a welcoming family based in Highbury, caring for their 2-month-old baby boy.

The family are seeking a caring, knowledgeable and proactive Nanny who has a strong understanding of newborn care and early childhood development. The successful candidate will be confident in supporting the baby's development, encouraging age-appropriate activities and helping him reach his developmental milestones as he grows.

The family currently have a Maternity Nurse in place, so the Nanny will be confident supporting the transition as the baby develops. An important part of the role will be guiding and supporting Mum with weaning, potty training when appropriate, establishing developmental routines and introducing engaging, educational play as the baby grows.

The position will involve a combination of sole and shared charge, so the family are looking for someone who is confident working independently while also being happy to work collaboratively with Mum. The role will include all nursery duties, ensuring the baby's environment is clean, organised and well maintained, alongside supporting his daily routine and developmental needs.
The household is informal and there are currently two cleaners who attend one day per week. The family also have two cats, so the successful candidate must be comfortable and pet-friendly.

A driver would be a bonus. Occasional babysitting may also be required, with advance notice.
The position is offered on a live-out, part-time basis, working two full days of approximately 10 hours and two half days for 5 hours per day (afternoons) per week. Role will transition to full time (Monday - Friday, 10 hours per day) once Mum returns to work at some point next year.

The family are keen to appoint a dependable, engaging and experienced Nanny who will become a valued part of their household and provide loving, attentive care as their little boy grows and develops.

Offering a negotiable salary depending on experience and qualifications.
