Four day nanny housekeeper needed in Havant, PO9
This family are looking for a well experienced and qualified nanny housekeeper to become a valuable part of the family in this long term position. Care will be required for their new baby boy, who is currently 4 months old. They also have a 13 year old, however care will be focused on the baby.
The core days required are Wednesday and Thursday 11am to 5/6pm, when Mum will be working, and the nanny will be sole charge of the baby.
Ideally they would have someone working 4 days per week with them (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) from 11am to 5/6pm. With the Monday and Friday being focused more on housekeeping, with some care of the baby, as Mum will not be working on these days.
The family are flexible, as they really want to find the right person to care for their baby. Therefore if the core childcare days on Weds and Thurs are only desired, they will consider this. They may also be able to consider live in candidates, as they do have a bedroom with private bathroom for a nanny should they wish to live in.
Duties on the Wednesday and Thursday will include sole charge care of the baby, providing a nurturing and stimulating environment and planning age-appropriate activities to support sensory development and early milestones. Preparing and sterilising bottles, feeding baby, supporting naps and maintaining sleep routines and changing nappies. Taking the baby on walks and to age appropriate baby classes.
Duties on the Monday and Friday will be a real mix of responsibilities. The family have cleaners to do the heavy cleaning, however the nanny housekeeper will be responsible for all light cleaning to keep on top of the home. They will also be responsible for all family laundry, ironing, folding, putting clothes away etc. As well as light housekeeping duties such as emptying and reloading the dishwasher, restocking and organising of cupboards/food items, food shop, running errands, family PA duties, hoovering, wiping down surfaces and keeping the home clean. Mum is likely to pop to the gym, or go out to run her own errands, so the nanny housekeeper will then focus on the baby during this time. When the nanny housekeeper is in charge of the baby, his care is always the priority. Therefore if Mum has been out for a long period on a ‘housekeeping day’ she of course understands that less household duties will have been completed.
The ideal candidate will be well experienced with babies, and as a nanny housekeeper. They would like someone who is confident in the role, very reliable, trustworthy and caring. They really want someone to work for them long term, and will highly value someone as an integral part of their family team.
The family can provide a nanny car whilst on duty, however occasional use of the nanny’s own car would be a real bonus. The ideal candidate would also have some flexibility on the odd Saturday (not a regular requirement) or for ad hoc babysitting, which will be paid in addition to their usual salary. It would be lovely if the nanny wished to join them on the occasional family holiday, though this is not a deal breaker.
Please apply asap for this lovely position!
