This family of four are looking for a Nanny/Mother’s help in the care of their two children aged 2 years and a baby, born in July.
The position will primarily be to look after the 2 year old, engage in play with her at home, provide meals for her or to go with Mum and the children to local groups and activities. Mum is looking for someone who is comfortable working alongside her most of the time, who is happy to muck in to keep on top of the organisation of the home and help with the baby when needed so some experience with young babies is essential.
The 2 year old is a chatty and busy girl who loves spending time outdoors in their large garden, where there is a tennis court and a stream. She enjoys playing football, going on her bike and playing in the paddling pool. The family also have two friendly dogs so you will need to be comfortable around dogs. The ideal candidate will be easy going, tidy and organised and passionate about engaging with the children. The most important thing for Mum is that the children are happy and in a good routine.
