An exceptional opportunity has arisen for two professional, qualified and experienced rota nannies to join a welcoming, hands-on family caring for their baby aged 6 months. Taking over from the maternity nurse, the successful nannies will step into a well-established routine and provide a high standard of attentive, knowledgeable care as the baby moves into the next developmental stages. This is a highly appealing position offering the chance to work in a formal fully staffed household, both in London and internationally, for a family who are genuinely engaged in their child’s care and appreciate an experienced nanny’s guidance. It is ideally suited to forward-thinking, confident candidates who are calm, organised, developmentally focused, and excited by the prospect of regular travel. Preference will be given to nannies with previous rota experience.

• Warm, supportive and able to build a strong working relationship with involved parents.
• Experienced in both shared care and sole charge roles.
• Good judgement around family dynamics to allow valuable family time.
• A proven team player who works well within a formal fully staffed household.
• Enjoys travelling and ideally has previous experience travelling with families.
• Calm, discreet, flexible and highly organised.

Perks of the Role:

• A highly attractive 24/14 rota arrangement offering excellent balance.
• Opportunity to join a fully staffed private household in a long-term role.
• London base with regular international travel.
• The chance to work closely with engaged, hands-on parents.
• A varied and rewarding position supporting a baby through an important stage of development.
