Part Time Nanny Job in Bedford
About Me
I’m a manager at Bedford Hospital, so finding someone reliable, trustworthy and caring to support my family is very important to me as I work long hours (4 days a week, 8h to 18h).
My baby was born prematurely at 33 weeks, so I’m particularly keen to find someone who is patient, nurturing and confident caring for a young baby. I want someone who will provide a safe, calm and loving environment and who genuinely enjoys being around children.
For the right nanny, I’m open to a live-in arrangement. I’m friendly, respectful and family-oriented.
I also recently had the experience of hosting a Ukrainian refugee in my home, so I understand the importance of making someone feel welcome, comfortable and respected when sharing a home.
I have a spare room and I want to provide a comfortable and welcoming home, while also respecting the nanny’s privacy, independence and time off.
My Requirements
From April 2027 - baby will be 11 months old.
*****Live-In “Split” Arrangement**** OR Happy to Negotiate Price
This would suit someone who would like to live in the property but work a part-time childcare schedule and have another job
OR
Happy to negotiate price for the duties required without live-in arrangement.
The nanny would be expected to
1. Support with taking my child to and collecting them from their childminder 3 days a week (30h free childcare) - car can be provided, my working hours are usually 8h to 18h.
2. Looking after my child 1 full day a week at home (or another suitable place, but child would need to be collected in the morning)
(will include weekend days, times and days can be negotiated).
Typical responsibilities would include:
-Preparing my child in the morning and getting them ready for the childminder (if live in arrangement)
-Dropping and collecting my child from the childminder
- (if live in arrangement/full day spent at my home) Tidying up after the child and carrying out minimal housekeeping related to the child (such as keeping their areas organised, making/changing the bed, putting dirty dishes in the dishwasher, etc)
(extra responsibilities and appropriate remuneration can be negotiated)
NOTE
Live-in Arrangement- if required, support with night time childcare during my working days (so 4 nights a week).
My baby at 5 months sleeps through the night and is a very easy baby so hopefully the support needed will be very minimal.
(this can also be negotiated and adjusted)
The live-in arrangement would include:
-Accommodation in a spare room within my home (free in exchange for the above duties and with bills included)
-3 full days and nights off each week and time off during the time child is at the childminder.
The nanny would have plenty of free time to use for another job, personal commitments, etc.
There would be no childcare required during half-term holidays (or would be minimal).
During part of the summer school holidays (approximately 1 to 2 weeks), the live-in accommodation would need to be temporarily vacated as my parents may stay at the property and provide childcare support. The nanny's belongings could remain in the room if required. The nanny could take this time to take some holiday as well.
If you are interested, please get in touch.
