A fabulous four-day opportunity has become available for a patient, caring, energetic, and fun nanny to join a professional and friendly family in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. The family is healthy and active, with a love of outdoor activities. They are looking for a nanny who will become a valued part of their happy home.
You will be caring for one delightful little boy, aged one.
He is being raised bilingually, so someone who speaks an additional language, particularly Portuguese or French, would be advantageous.
The days and hours for this position will be Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 08.00-18.00 (40 hours/week). There will be a need for some flexibility with hours due to the parents’ work commitments; however, any additional hours and mutually agreed babysitting will be paid as overtime.
The parents would like you to provide a balanced approach to development, supporting their son to reach his milestones. This should include a range of indoor activities such as reading stories, singing, puzzles, and imaginative play, as well as plenty of time outdoors, including walks and trips to the park. The parents are keen for him to attend activities, groups, and playdates, so a nanny who is sociable and proactive in planning outings will be ideal.
In addition to general childcare, you will be responsible for nursery duties, including preparing healthy, nutritious home-cooked meals for the little boy and batch cooking, keeping his areas organised and tidy, and managing his laundry. You should also have good knowledge of weaning and potty training. Any help with small daily tasks, such as emptying the dishwasher and ensuring toys are tidied away at the end of the day, would be appreciated. The family employs a weekly cleaner.
You will need to be a confident, careful driver with a clean licence and a fully insured car. Duty mileage will be reimbursed.
