About Me
We are a 4 member family with two boys (5.5yo in Y1 and 4yo in nursery attached to same school), looking to replace our live-in nanny who is leaving us to return to their home after being with us for almost 3 years. Our home (for live-in option) includes an entire floor with a large double-bed room (ample storage) and a separate and dedicated bathroom offered for our nanny.
My Requirements
An European North London-based (Woodside Park) family of 4 is looking for a new warm and energetic *live-in nanny* to work *40 hours per week* (split across 7-9:30/10am and 3:30-8:30pm). *Key requirement*: a driver with clean record, who will have use of our automatic car.
We have 2 sweet and energetic boys - 4 and 5.5 - both attend the same school, which is 8 minutes drive from our home with easy parking. Neither have special education needs.
The nanny would have sole use of her own entire floor in our house with a large double bedroom and massive bathroom - with full privacy as no one ever has to go up there.
Start date: January 4 (or early January - can move in from December 30 if needed)
Nanny duties will include:
- Getting boys and ready for school in the morning (breakfast, getting dressed, etc) and most days driving to drop them off
- Collecting from school and taking home or to weekly swim lesson (5 mins from school) and giving them dinner, doing bath, prepping them for bed, and some days doing bedtime
- ?Occasional proxy parenting during the 2 times per year when my husband and I are both away for work simultaneously (which happens mid week)
- ?Holiday travel during the summer for 2-3 weeks to our home in Greece - again, private floor with bedroom and dedicated bathroom
- ?Standard 28 days Annual Leave (inclusive of bank holidays) + 2 weeks extra when we travel during December and half terms.
- ?[optional but would be amazing] - 1 weekend per month, 4-5 hours of babysitting
Nursery duties:
- cooking their dinner (we have an easy schedule of some staples the kids like which our nanny cooks 2-3 times per week)
- laundry - kids and parents mixed loads are mixed together. Only folding after the dryer is required and putting away
- ?keeping children’s rooms and play areas tidy
- ?doing daily reading or maths with the 5 year old after school
- ?1 night of week night babysitting - although I’m embarrassed to say we rarely use it, but I’d like to have it contractually there.
This position is for a payroll arrangement (competitive salary) where we would be contributing to a pension too etc.
