About Me
We are busy family with three children aged 9, 6 and 3. I’m at home but would like some help as there are various school runs to be done, homework to be achieved etc and I’d rather not cart the 3 year old around with me. I will be away 2 days a week with one child so the candidate needs to be comfortable with sole care of two children whilst tag teaming with my husband who will take over at the end of the day. I’d love someone cheerful I can enjoy the job with and act as a bit of a team with. I’m also willing to delegate and lock myself away in the local pub doing some admin if that is preferable!
My Requirements
Helping with getting the children ready for school, looking after the little one when we are on school runs, maybe doing school runs if you are a confident driver (not essential), preparing children’s meals, bed time help and helping with laundry.
We can be flexible around the shifts if there are one or two per week which don’t work for you and we can somehow piece the jigsaw between us!

I couldn’t think of a kinder and calmer lady to arrive at our house each morning. Marie is heaven. We’ve not known her very long but after a week with her I can tell you she’s wonderful with all of our children, efficient and hugely reliable. Excellent at working alongside a stay at home Mummy which of course is also a tricky balance. Thank you Marie.
