Full-Time Vacancies

South Kensington: August start.    We are recruiting for a new shared care, Daily Nanny, for 3 children; 8, 5 & 2 years.

The new Nanny will be required to work Monday to Friday, and our clients are able to offer a flexible start time (with the nanny starting anytime between 08.00 & 11.00), but the nanny will work until 19.30. 

This is a shared care role, but Mum is involved in various activities, so comes & goes throughout the day. The perfect fit for our clients would be a Nanny who will blend into their home and family and is looking for a long term appointment. The new candidate will be someone who has experience caring for young & school-age children (this is essential), as is the drive, energy & experience to keep a family home organised and running smoothly.  A typical day could include: school run and nursery runs (both walking distances), grocery shopping, cooking, tidying, laundry, organising, children's activities, helping with meal times, bath and bedtime.

The candidate will perform full nanny duties and must be able to play with our very active and adventurous children (parks & play-dates), happy to set up activities & sports at home. Being able to keep up with the children and play at their level is super-important - so a fit & active nanny is crucial.  Some days will be more children-oriented than others and the family believe routines & schedules are important for the children.

Candidate should be reliable, flexible and helpful. Someone with good previous experience who is organised and detail orientated and proactive. They are seeking a team member who is kind, fun and yet firm and able to keep the boys in check. Someone who enjoys cooking is very important for family and time to best have home cooked nutritious and good food ready for the children - healthy and delicious meals.  Family have an indoor hypoallergenic cat, so nanny must like pets.

Historically the family have travelled most school holidays and Covid depending would like the nanny to join them for a couple of weeks. And as the family are fully Covid vaccinated it is highly desirable that the new nanny has either had her vaccinations or will be willing to at the earliest opportunity. 

The family lives in the Knightsbridge/South Kensington area of London and both Knightsbridge & South Kensington tubes are pretty much equidistant and easy walking.

Clients are looking to pay a very good salary for a top candidate. Call agency for more details on 0207 610 9218 or if new to us please send CV + refs to us at info@nanniesofstjames.com
