Are you a fun loving, happy nanny who enjoys spending time with school age children?
A wonderful part-time nanny role has become available working alongside Dad, caring for his three energetic, friendly and confident girls aged 14, 11 and 9. The family lives in Hertford, Hertfordshire.
They are looking for an active, nurturing, creative and happy nanny to help keep them organised and have lots of fun adventures.
The children like to spend time outside playing sports and going to playgrounds, as well as indoor activities such a playing games, crafts and baking.
The hours will be Monday, 12.00-19.30, Wednesday, 12.30-20.00 and Thursday, 07.30-19.30 (27 hours/week). The role will be all year round, but in the school holidays there could be additional ad hoc hours that will be mutually agreed and paid as overtime. There could also be some ad hoc hours for evening babysitting, that will also be paid as overtime or given as time in lieu, so a candidate who can be flexible would be ideal.
During term time, while they are at school, you will have time to help keep the children organised – helping to keep their areas tidy, making sure they have everything they need for the following day (uniform, sports kit, etc), keeping up with school admin, overseeing homework and arranging play dates.
In the school holidays you will have time to take the children to fun and educational activities and meet up with their friends. The children also love to play board games and have sleep overs.
You will take care of the children’s laundry and prepare a healthy and nutritious meal for them each day, home cooked as often as possible, involving the children if this is something they enjoy. Making a little extra for Dad for when he gets home from work would be appreciated.
Although the family has a weekly cleaner any help to keep the house running smoothly would be appreciated (emptying the dishwasher, running errands, etc).
You will need to be a careful and confident driver with your own fully insured car. Duty mileage will be paid. There is also the possible use of a duty car if required.
If you are warm, patient nanny and interested in becoming a part of this fabulous family, this could be the perfect role for you.
