We’re looking for a warm, experienced and nurturing nanny to care for our son Xavier, who turns 2 at the end of November, for three regular weekdays each week at our home in Cheltenham.
We’re hoping to find someone long term who can become a familiar, trusted and important person in his life. Xavier is a happy, affectionate and curious little boy who loves exploring, reading, playing and being outdoors.
We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers and is happy to plan simple age-appropriate activities, read together, play on the floor, go for walks, and support his development through everyday play and connection.
A calm, responsive and affectionate approach is very important to us. We follow an attachment-based parenting style and want someone who is comfortable offering reassurance, closeness and comfort when Xavier is upset, rather than leaving him to cry.
We’re a vegan household, so we’d also love someone who is comfortable preparing and serving simple plant-based meals and snacks for him.
Ideally, you will have:
• Strong experience caring for children aged 1–3
• Current Working With Children Check
• Current paediatric First Aid and CPR
• Recent references from families
• A calm, patient and reliable nature
• Driver’s licence
• Non-smoker
Early childhood education, childcare or professional nanny experience would be highly regarded.
The role is for three consistent weekdays each week, and we’re ideally looking for someone interested in a long-term position.
Most importantly, we want to find someone Xavier feels completely safe, happy and comfortable with.
