This lovely family are looking for a looking for a positive, flexible Nanny to help care for their baby boy born August 2024. The parents are looking for a nanny who is an active, hardworking and a self-starter. The family would also love for the nanny to be a native Mandarin speaker, however this is not essential.
The baby is happy and in a very good routine. The family are keen for him to go to classes, groups, playdates and activities. This is a shared care role - both parents are home with the mother being very present with the baby and the father working from a home office. The baby currently has a Maternity Nurse who is leaving at the end of May – ideally there will be a handover period of a few weeks to transition care to the new nanny.
The working days would be Monday to Friday, 12 hours per day on a flexible schedule (for example starting later sometimes to accommodate a dinner or starting earlier to allow the parents to get to a morning commitment). The nanny would also have the baby monitor overnight although it is very rare for baby to wake.
The Nanny needs to have a relaxed yet professional approach and recognise their role as being there to provide excellent care to the baby and support the parents.
The family have a beautiful home in Kensington with a private garden, plus a communal garden access. The nanny would have their own private bedroom and bathroom (Monday to Friday).
When the family travel the nanny may travel with them depending on the situation. In the first year it will be minimal due to work commitments but may increase as time goes on.
The family employ a housekeeper 2-3 days a week. All nursery duties would need to be completed by the Nanny including preparing fresh nutritious meals for the baby.
A driver is not needed.
The family have a 4 year old Golden Retriever who has a dog walker. He’s trained and very friendly :).
