We have a wonderful opportunity for an experienced and professional Nanny to support a high-net-worth family of three in their Central London residence on a permanent basis. A shared-care role, the Nanny will work collaboratively with and support the principal nanny who has been with the family for many years, and also support the parents who are very hands-on, so it’s important that the successful candidate can take direction when required yet have the ability to work independently.

The ideal candidate will be creative individual with a background as a teacher or tutor and enjoy art, woodwork, and outdoor activities, as well as being highly flexible and able to adapt to the family’s evolving schedule. Duties will include assisting the child with homework, overseeing educational development, assisting with managing the child’s schedule and wardrobe management. Additionally, you will also run ad-hoc errands as required and buy items such as toiletries, art supplies and uniforms. A candidate with a driving license is preferred, and the Nanny must also be a strong swimmer.

It is essential that the Nanny is a strong team player with excellent communication skills, and it is preferred that the Nanny already has experience working within a staffed household. The family frequently travel to their countryside home on weekends, and will travel internationally most school holidays, so will require the successful candidate to travel with them – accommodation and food will be covered by the family during periods of travel.

A live-out role, the working schedule is generally 7 days on followed by 2 days off. During busier periods (e.g., school holidays or when the principal nanny is on leave), accrued days off may need to be taken at the end of that period. Weekday hours would generally be from 12pm - 8/8:30pm during term time, with flexibility required to cover parents' travel, child illness, absence from school, or jet lag. Hours on the weekend would be 8/9 am-8pm with the workday typically ending when the family has dinner.
