Looking for after-school care in Headington for 3 lovely children aged 13, 10 and 8
About Me
We are a welcoming and fun family of five looking for a nanny/babysitter to provide after school care for our children. It is mostly for our 10 year old boy and 8 year old girl but we also have a 13 year old boy who would be around most evenings. We are looking for someone available to start work from September, but I would be able to do some induction sessions in July and there may be possibility of some work in August if it was wanted.
We are based in Headington in Oxford. We are two medical doctors, one working for the NHS and the other for the University. Our 2 younger children go to the local primary school just round the corner. The eldest is at secondary school and more independent. They are all lively, love being outside and doing messy activities. The eldest does football and scouts, our middle son is a board games fanatic and enjoys swimming and gymnastic, and our daughter has become football made and also enjoys singing and beaver scouts.
We try to provide the best possible place for a nanny to work, and hope our previous experience with babysitters/nannies/au pairs can help make you feel welcome too. If you are driving to us we have a space on our drive where you could park. Driving is not required though. We have a cat.
My Requirements
We are looking for a nanny to provide after school care 4 days a week (Monday - Thursday, we would also consider someone who could do 2 or 3 days but would really prefer to cover all 4).
The school is a short walk away, our nanny would collect the children, take them to after school activities, help them with any homework, and play with them before preparing their evening meal and starting bedtime (3pm - 6/7pm). It is a total of 14-15 hours per week.
We would pay around £18/ hour plus £2 per hour prospective holiday pay. It would be a term time contract but work in the school holidays may be available on an ad hoc basis and would be paid separately.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
