August 13, 2026 | Comments Off on Nanny/Mother’s Help required near Cheltenham
This family of four are looking for a Nanny/Mother’s help in the care of their two children aged 2 years and a baby, born in July.
The position will primarily be to look after the 2 year old, engage in play with her at home, provide meals for her or to go with Mum and the children to local groups and activities. Mum is looking for someone who is comfortable working alongside her most of the time, who is happy to muck in to keep on top of the organisation of the home and help with the baby when needed so some experience with young babies is essential.
The 2 year old is a chatty and busy girl who loves spending time outdoors in their large garden, where there is a tennis court and a stream.

Baby nanny role in Winchester SO21
This is a lovely opportunity to join a busy, professional family caring for their baby girl, who will be 6 months old when the position begins. The family are looking for an experienced, qualified nanny to work Monday to Friday, 1:00pm–7:00pm (30 hours per week).
They are seeking someone with a Montessori-inspired approach to childcare—someone who encourages independence, learns through play and exploration, and supports their daughter’s development in a calm, nurturing and engaging way. They are looking for a nanny who is proactive, genuinely invested in their little girl, and who will become a valued part of the family.
Mum works from home full-time, and Dad splits his time between home and the office. When they are at home, they are very much working, so the nanny will have sole charge of their daughter during working hours. They are therefore looking for someone confident, capable and happy to take full responsibility for her care and daily routine.
Both parents enjoy an active lifestyle, love food and travelling, and are looking for a nanny who will provide a fun, stimulating and enriching environment. Duties will include following the baby’s routine, attending classes and groups, enjoying walks, and encouraging age-appropriate developmental milestones through play and everyday experiences.
In addition to childcare, there will be some light housekeeping duties to help keep on top of the home (the family employ a cleaner), along with preparing family meals, occasional cooking, and walking the family dog. However, the little girl’s care and wellbeing will always be the priority.
The nanny will need to be a driver to commute to the family home. An automatic nanny car will be provided for use during working hours.
If you’re an experienced nanny looking for a warm, welcoming family and a role where you can make a real difference during a little one’s first year, please apply as soon as possible to be considered.
Location of the job: Winchester SO21
Minimum experience Level for this job: 2 years minimum caring for 6 months+
Details of any training needed for this job: Paediatric first aid
Details of any qualifications needed for this job: Level 3 or above in childcare/early years
Hours of work: 1-7pm (30 hours per week)
Days required: Monday to Friday
Pets in the home: 1 small dog
Driving required: Yes, nanny car provided once on duty
Job Start Date: 1st December 2026
Pay: £18-£20 gross per hour. Up to £2600 gross per month, £31,200 gross per annum. There may be some flexibility on salary for the perfect candidate.
