This is a nanny/housekeeper role, meaning that there are duties to look after the children and the home.

We are looking for someone who enjoys preparing healthy family meals.

We have a cleaner who visits twice a week, however this role would involve housekeeping duties as follows:

Our kids are little superstars, lovely, happy little people who are respectful of others and their environment.

We have a competitive salary and holiday policy, along with other benefits.

There may be opportunities to travel with the family as the kids get older - at present we take 3/4 holidays a year and work with our nanny to arrange her to be off at the same time utilising her holidays when we are away. Additional hours worked are paid additionally on a monthly basis.
