A lovely varied full time position has become available near Cheltenham, looking for a Housekeeper/Nanny to support them in their busy family home.
The ideal candidate will have experience of working or running a busy household, professional with a good work ethic and high standards of cleanliness, organised, fun but also able to set boundaries when needed. Your duties will be all household duties such as cleaning, laundry, some meal preparation (although Mum loves to do most of the cooking), along with helping with the school runs, taking children to after school activities and supervising and engaging in play with the children.
In the holidays the nanny aspect of the job may become more significant but in term time there will be more emphasis on the housekeeper role. You may also be asked to visit Grandparents in Devon in the school holidays with 3 of the children so you will need to be a confident driver.
The family have 5 children, two 9 year olds and a 7, 6 and 5 year old. Two of the children are only there 60% of the time and generally you would not have sole charge of all 5 children as Mum is hands on when not working. All the children enjoy playing in their large garden and field, playing football, den building and playing Lego or drawing. There are also 4 dogs and a cat in the home, who are all friendly.
There is some flexibility with the days and hours for the right person. This is a friendly and fun family to become a part of on a long term basis.
