Working Parents Need Regular Help With 2 Children
About Me
Hi, we are a busy but friendly family based in Portsmouth. I work full-time in a role that often requires me to be away from home, and my partner is studying full-time at university alongside placement commitments.
We have two lovely children aged 9 and 6 who are full of energy and character. Due to our schedules, we are looking for reliable help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, and some general support around routines during the week.
We are keen to find someone trustworthy, organised and warm who can become a positive and consistent presence in our children’s lives.
My Requirements
Our schedule works on a 4-weeks-on, 4-weeks-off rotation due to my partner’s university placement. We are primarily looking for support during the 4 weeks when she is on placement, as this allows me to continue working full-time without disruption.
We receive placement schedules in advance, so notice will always be given. Although the weekly pattern may vary slightly, we can provide structure and planning ahead of time.
The main support we require is help with school drop-offs and pick-ups, and assistance with after-school routines during those placement weeks.
We are looking for someone flexible, reliable and long-term focused. Ideally, we would love to find the right nanny who can become a consistent part of our family until the children are older.
We understand this role requires good communication and flexibility, and we are very open to discussing expectations to make sure it works well for both sides.
Please feel free to ask any questions — we are happy to provide clarity.
