This busy family of five are looking for a fun and confident Nanny to help in the care of their three children aged 9, 7 and 3 years.
Your duties will be purely childcare related, nursery and school pick ups, supporting homework, engaging in fun activities with the children, tidying playroom and children’s bedrooms, sorting and organising toys/clothes, getting uniform and school bags ready for the next day, some cooking of meals will be be required although the parents will do most of the cooking as they like to all eat together. Most of the care will be with the 3 year old who loves to be outdoors, enjoys trains, sports and reading books. He is starting nursery in September so someone who has experience of this and knowledge of phonics would be really helpful. The two eldest are at school so there will be after school clubs to be taken to but the parents do help with this as well. The eldest two are both musical and play the piano and violin. The 9 year old also enjoys netball and reading and the 7 year old likes theatre, singing and playing football. They all enjoy arts and crafts too and tend to have an ongoing project they are working on.
The ideal candidate will have good energy with a positive attitude, flexibility as parents are busy working professionals and on occasion may need you to work a little later. You will be required to have experience of working with more than one child and understand the logistics and organisation required to multi task with multiple children. A driver is required to do the school/nursery runs (on the outskirts of Cheltenham) about 25 minute drive, you will need to be able to use your own car. They will also require babysitting once a week and there may be an ad hoc weekend required.
