About Me
Nanny-Housekeeper / Family Assistant
We're a friendly family based in Essex, looking for a warm, reliable, professional and proactive Nanny-Housekeeper / Family Assistant to become a trusted extra pair of hands in our home.
Childcare will be primarily focused on our 15-month-old toddler, with occasional care of our newborn, including caring for both together when needed. Experience with babies and young toddlers is therefore highly desirable.
We also have three older children aged 5, 9 and 12 who are around the home, although childcare will not be required for them.
The role will be varied and flexible, combining childcare of our younger 2 with household support to help keep our busy family home running smoothly.

Childcare will be focused on our young toddler, whilst mum manages newborn, however on occasion care may be required for both toddler and newborn together.
