Live out Child friendly Housekeeper/Cook, Maida Vale / Warwick Avenue, West London

A lovely and relaxed family is looking for an experienced Housekeeper/Cook to help in their home. The family is Mum, Dad, and their two teenage twin children. Two friendly miniature Dachshunds and a pet cat complete the family. This is a down-to-earth, easy-going and fun-loving family who is looking to find someone who is happy to become part of their family.

They need you to either take your holidays when the family is away or housesit in the family’s absence. Mum works from home 3 times a week, so it is important that you are discreet. The family is seeking a child-friendly person who enjoys cooking, is switched-on, well-organised, a self-starter, communicates clearly and uses their initiative well.  You must have prior dog walking experience either from your private or work life.

Duties to include:

  • Cleaning and tidying up

  • Laundry and ironing (some hand washing)

  • Simple family cooking – mostly for the children (classic family dishes) and this does not have to be done daily from scratch, they are happy if you cook in batches

  • Changing bed sheets

  • Organising wardrobes and cupboards

  • Periodic deep cleaning

  • Running errands, grocery shopping and managing petty cash (card provided and you need to keep track of expenses)

  • Placing the monthly Ocado order online for the bulky items

  • Report any issues in the home to mum

  • Feed & walk the two dogs separately (30-30 minutes each in the morning and 20-20 minutes each in the afternoon = 1 hour 40 minutes per day)

Closest tube station: Little Venice or Warwick Avenue

House: 4 bedroom 4 storey house 

Hours: Monday to Friday, 11 am – 7 pm (total of 40 hours per week)

Salary: £43,000 - £45,000 gross per annum (depending on experience)
