Live Out Child-Friendly Housekeeper Job in Virginia Water
Our client, based in Virginia Water, is looking for a full-time live-out housekeeper to join their household. The family consists of a couple with two young children, aged seven and three. They are hoping to find someone warm, calm, patient, and friendly who will fit naturally into the household and become a trusted part of family life.
The position is primarily housekeeping focused, as the family already employs a part-time nanny and the mother is often at home. Your direct involvement with the children will therefore be very limited, although you may occasionally be asked to keep an eye on them if both the mother and the nanny are unavailable.
Day-to-day responsibilities will centre around maintaining the home to a high standard. The family is looking for someone who takes pride in their work and has a great eye for detail. The ability to care for delicate fabrics and garments, including handwashing when needed, is essential. An interest or experience in flower arranging would also be highly valued, as the family appreciates thoughtful touches that help to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
This role offers an excellent opportunity for an experienced housekeeper who would enjoy becoming part of a kind and supportive family environment while bringing their skills and professionalism to the home.
