A lovely private family based in Hyde Park are looking for a warm, fun, and energetic nanny to care for their two children, aged 7m and 5, during their time in London from May through to August.
This is a fully live-in role, with the nanny having their own self-contained apartment close to the family home, offering both comfort and privacy.
The family are seeking someone who genuinely enjoys working with young children and can create a happy, engaging, and nurturing environment. You will be responsible for the children’s daily routines, organising age-appropriate activities, and ensuring they are well cared for throughout the day. The role is purely childcare focused, so there are no housekeeping or cooking duties required.
Flexibility is very important for this position, the day off may change throughout the 4 months, although the family will ensure that you are given plenty of downtime and adequate rest throughout the four-month period. There may also be some travel involved, so a willingness to travel with the family would be appreciated.
The ideal candidate will have previous experience working within VIP or private households and be able to provide excellent references. Fluent English is essential, and additional languages would be considered a bonus.
This is a wonderful opportunity for a professional nanny looking for a dynamic and rewarding short-term role with a welcoming family.
