Core Responsibilities
Collaborative Childcare: Manage the day-to-day routine (feeding, sleep, hygiene) and foster developmental milestones. This includes "rustling up" engaging activities like sensory play, cooking sessions, and educational outings.
Emotional Support: Act as an excellent role model, helping the child understand "big emotions" and fostering independence and good manners.
Lifestyle & Admin Support: Beyond childcare, you will assist with holiday research, managing administration for the family's Italian property, ordering groceries, and general errands.
Household Oversight: Keep play areas and bedrooms tidy, manage the child’s laundry, and assist with family meal prep where appropriate. (Note: A housekeeper handles deep cleaning).
Pet Care: Must be comfortable and willing to assist with animal care as the family plans to welcome a small dog.
Global Travel: Accompany the family on extensive international and UK-based trips, ensuring all child-related logistics are managed.
The Ideal Candidate
Intuitive & Discrete: You can "read the room" and know when to step in or step back. You are always "ahead of things before they need doing."
Language: An Italian speaker is strongly preferred to support the family’s international ties.
Skills: A confident swimmer and a driver comfortable in both the UK and Europe.
Professionalism: High level of initiative, excellent diary management, and a commitment to long-term placement.
Requirements
Right to Work in the UK and a UK/EU Passport.
