Seeking caring nanny for after school care for our 2 children (6F & 1M) for 3 days/wk (Feb 27)
About Me
We’re a friendly family living in Leatherhead, in a lovely old house full of character (which could do with a little modernisation – something we’re saving for when the children are a bit older and less likely to spill things!).
We have plenty of space, including a separate playroom and a large back garden, and love making the most of it.
As a family, we’re happiest outdoors and enjoy cycling, walking, reading, cooking, good food and exploring different cultures. We love encouraging the children to be curious about the world around them, try new things and spend lots of time playing, creating and exploring.
We’re looking for someone who will feel at home with us and become a familiar, trusted and valued part of family life.
My Requirements
After School Nanny Wanted – 3 Days a Week
We’re looking for a warm, enthusiastic and caring nanny to join our family from February 2027 (although we’re flexible on the start date for the right person).
Hours: Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, 4.30–7pm, with the opportunity for occasional additional mornings and full days.
Our family: We have two lovely children – a 6-year-old girl and a little boy who will be turning one around the time the role starts.
We’re also open to nanny-share arrangements (for example, if you have a child of your own you’d like to bring along). We have space in our home to accommodate another child on these three days.
Pay: Negotiable depending on experience.
The sort of person we’re looking for
Above all, we’d love to find someone who is kind, compassionate and genuinely passionate about working with children. Someone who enjoys getting stuck into activities, encourages curiosity and creativity, and wants to help children develop and thrive.
A second language would be a lovely bonus, particularly Mandarin, Portuguese, Polish or French, but it’s certainly not essential. We’d be delighted to hear from anyone who speaks another language.
What the role would involve
* Providing a nurturing, stimulating and fun environment in which our children can thrive.
* Collecting our daughter from school and our son from his childminder.
* Preparing and serving healthy dinners, ideally involving the children in cooking where appropriate.
* Helping our daughter with her (small amount of!) homework.
* Getting creative with the children through crafts, messy play and other activities.
* Lots and lots of snuggling up and reading books!
* Getting outdoors whenever possible – walks, bike rides, playing in the garden, gardening or trips to the park. We’d love you to bring your own interests and ideas to these activities.
* Some light housekeeping, including keeping the children’s play areas tidy and doing their laundry.
We’re looking for someone who will become a valued part of our family and help make the children’s afternoons happy, active and enjoyable.
We look forward to hearing from you!
