My Requirements

We are looking for an experienced and caring nanny at our house in Thames Ditton, KT7. We are ideally looking for 36 hours a week, and the below hours are required:

Monday - 8.30am-5.30pm
Wednesday - 8am-6pm
Thursday - 7.30am-6.30pm
Friday - 8am - 2pm

The days of the week are unfortunately not flexible.

We are looking for someone who is experienced with looking after toddlers who can provide 1:1 support (and later 1:2 support once our second child arrives and I return to work) to our 19 month old daughter. We would like someone who can create fun and educational activities (ie. arts and crafts/music/books/garden activities) to keep my daughter engaged and entertained and continue her learning and development. We feel it is important for her to attend classes/play groups to continue socialising with children her own age, as well as age-appropriate outings which is why we would prefer to have someone who can drive (either with our car or their own car). Eating a healthy balanced diet is important and we would like a nanny who can prep meals to ensure she is having a range of meals.

I am currently expecting my second child, due in February 2027, and will therefore be on maternity leave for a year from February 2027. If there is a nanny who has newborn experience, this would be a bonus, to assist on an ad hoc basis. However, the expectation would not be to leave the nanny solely in charge of a newborn and toddler for an extended period of time, until the baby is older. Once I return to work, the nanny would have sole charge of both children for three days per week.
