Daily Nanny | Clerkenwell, London EC1

Location: Clerkenwell, London EC1R
Salary: £50,000 - £65,000
Schedule: Monday to Thursday, 8am-5.30/6pm
Child: One baby girl, currently three months
Start Date: Ideally November, and no later than January

A family based in Clerkenwell, central London, are seeking a nanny to care for their baby daughter, who is three months old. They are a calm, happy and relaxed young family, and they are hoping to find someone who will grow with them over the long term.

Above all they are looking for someone caring, gentle, positive and calm under pressure, with a focus on their daughter's development and on keeping her physically and mentally stimulated through the day. Someone with knowledge of the EYFS to help creative activities and plan classes as she gets older and hits certain milestones. Experience with weaning is essential, as they expect to start around December or January and would like someone who can take that on with confidence.

There are light nursery duties, such as tidying up after the baby, keeping the nursery organised, and generally being proactive and helpful. The nanny would work closely with the family's wonderful housekeeper, who is extremely kind and brilliant at what she does.

The family travel around three weeks a year at most. That tends to be a ski week in the Alps and then one or two weeks in the summer, usually the south of France, Greece or Egypt, and they would love a nanny who is happy to come along. They do take some holidays without the nanny, so there is no expectation of constant travel.

This is a live-out role. There are no pets. A driving licence is preferred and will matter more as their daughter gets older. Salary is competitive and will be agreed according to experience, paid weekly or monthly to suit the nanny.

Requirements

• Solid nanny experience with babies
• Driving licence preferred
• Relevant paediatric childcare qualification
• Enhanced DBS (on the update service)
• Paediatric first aid
• Contactable references from previous childcare roles
