About Me

My husband and I live in Kentish Town with two gorgeous little girls (aged 7 and 5) and a spirited little boy (about to turn 3) in a house with a small garden. We are both professionals. Our family is warm, considerate and straightforward. Our children are lively and fun but also kind and considerate. They are happy and chatty and enjoy reading, singing, drawing and having fun outdoors.

My Requirements

Live In Nanny
Live Out Nanny
Part Time Nanny

We are looking for an experienced, reliable nanny that could help us before school (7.30am to 9/9.30am) and in the afternoons (1.30pm to 7.30pm) with the following:

1. getting the children ready for school and nursery and dropping them off by 9am (schools are currently walking distance from the house);
2. cooking an evening meal, helping with laundry and tidying the kitchen and children's bedrooms (we have a separate cleaner for our main cleaning and ironing);
3. collecting the children from school at 3.30pm and taking them to any after school activities or helping with homework;
4. bringing everyone home, giving them an evening meal, bath and getting them ready for bed.

We are looking for someone that is patient and kind and will love our children like their own; someone that is creative and inspiring but can also be firm when required; and someone that is a self-starter and is flexible to household needs at any given time.

We are open to live in or live out. If live in, you would have your own bedroom (with a balcony overlooking the garden) and bathroom.

Our last nanny stayed with us for 7 years - we are hoping to find similar!

An excellent nanny

5 stars

Zdenka Nigosova worked for us as a part-time nanny to our two daughters for 3 months between April and July 2020. The circumstances were difficult. Our girls were 28 months and 8 months old when she started, the youngest had spent very little time away from me and we were in the midst of lockdown, my husband and I both working from home. Zdenka was a consummate professional, getting to grips with a difficult role with confidence and enthusiasm.

Zdenka built relationships with both girls such that they were happy to spend the day with her, despite knowing that mum and dad were just upstairs. She developed a routine for both girls that involved pre-planned activities, often focused around a book, which she brought with her every day as well as trips out to a different local park each day for games and exercise. She cooked healthy meals, helped wean the baby and encouraged the toddler to try a wider variety of foods. She trained both girls to have more regularly timed naps than they had been having and the baby to self-soothe herself to sleep. She also helped the baby crawl and take her first steps and the toddler potty train.

Throughout the time that she worked with us, Zdenka was punctual, well-prepared, imaginative yet structured, loving yet disciplined and very much a self-starter, able to work well with limited direction. We could not have asked for a better nanny to help us through this difficult period.
