A welcoming family living in the beautiful countryside near Crick, Northamptonshire is seeking an experienced, nurturing part-time Nanny to join them from around the middle of September. This is a fantastic opportunity to work within a supportive family environment with two young children, currently aged 2 years and 3 months and would suit a candidate looking to build a long-term partnership. Due to the rural location, a driver with their own car is essential.
The role offers a blend of sole-charge and shared care. Mum is currently at home, and Dad works from home around twice a week. As the parents will be around the ideal candidate will be a nanny who works confidently alongside parents, communicates well, reads the room, and has a genuine team-player attitude. Someone who can confidently adapt to the family’s routines would be a good fit. The ideal candidate will have strong nanny-specific experience and be confident caring for both children together. Excellent baby knowledge, including weaning and bottle preparation/sterilisation or a relevant childcare qualification would be highly desirable.
The family’s toddler loves spending time outdoors, so the family would love a nanny who enjoys spending time outside, and who will make the most of enriching activities, local classes and plan fun adventures; maintaining strong communication skills to ensure this can be balanced with the shared care element of this role. The family have a dog (who has a dog walker) and two cats, so a lover of animals is needed. The family would appreciate a candidate who can use their initiative to assist in the care of the animals occasionally.
