About Me
Seeking childminder 2 days a week, January start
Hello, I'm mum to a 2.5 year old, looking for a nanny 2 days a week, flexible which days. We have had a nanny for the last 1.5 years which has been brilliant, but unfortunately our nanny can't continue. We are now looking for a nanny who will develop an attuned relationship and loving bond with our toddler. We are flexible as to which 2 days of the week we need support, depending on your availability.
Our toddler is generally slow to warm to strangers, though she warmed really quickly to her nanny--we are looking for someone who will help her feel safe by going at her pace, and who will bring lots of fun energy. Initially we would want to gently transition to the new relationship, for example by working up to a full day over the course of a few days. Our current nanny is available to help with this transition.
