We're a family looking for a caring, reliable and proactive nanny to join us and help care for our sweet and happy 8 month old, as well as our clever chatty 3 year old.
Hours:
4-4.5 days a week (Mon, Tues, Weds, Thurs - plus a few hours on Friday if desired)
8am-5.45pm Mon-Thurs (you will be with the baby across all 4 days, and will also look after our toddler in the late afternoons)
We're open to flexibility and potentially engaging two nannies if there is a desire to work less than 4 days
Start date: We are looking for care from January and can be somewhat flexible on the start date
What we're looking for:
Someone who brings warmth, initiative and a genuine love of working with children. We value a calm, structured approach - especially for our baby who is on a nap schedule - so experience with baby sleep routines is ideal. It is very important that this person is punctual as my husband and I often have meetings in the morning and have to leave on time.
We are also looking for someone who also has flexibility around night times as we can have work events in the evening.
We'd love someone who is happy to prepare healthy meals and snacks for the children, keep things tidy and pitch in with light household chores (e.g dishes, folding and laundry) when the children are napping or playing independently. We want someone who is happy to lend a hand around the home during nap times (rather than just scrolling or waiting for time to pass - initiative is important to us!)
We're close to the beach and parks, and there is easy street parking and great public transport access. We're also very open to ideas for outings and activities - local libraries, playgrounds, museums, shows, baby sensory, Play studio - and of course happy to cover any reasonable costs for fun, enriching experiences you'd like to try with the kids. We have a strict no TV policy and prefer to minimise phone usage around our children.
We also have a dog so you need to be comfortable with pets.
Must have:
* Experience with babies under 12 months
* WWCC
* Long term availability (ideally 1-2 years)
* Child related qualifications preferred (but not essential)
Rate is negotiable for the right person - we truly value great care and want this to be a wonderful fit for both sides.
