Weekend Nanny, Belsize Park, September start
A returning client of Greycoat Lumleys is looking for a weekend Nanny to care for their two girls aged 8 and 10 years. They have a brother as well, aged 14, who is more independent.
Greycoat Lumleys placed a full-time housekeeper in this busy yet loving and welcoming household, with highly positive feedback from the placed candidate.
The role would be a mixture of sole and shared care, as Mum is around. Dad will be based in the USA for work and will visit once or twice a month. The family is looking for an exceptionally organised second pair of hands. A proactive and solution-oriented nature is especially valued.
The workdays will be either 9am to 6pm, or 2pm to 11pm. They will be told in advance, typically one week in advance, depending on Mum's schedule. Overnights and extra days (not more than one per week) may be occasionally required and would be paid on top. The Nanny would be given plenty of notice and would be provided with a private bedroom within the house for overnights. A certain degree of flexibility would be appreciated.
An up to date first aid certificate and DBS are essential for this position.
