Full-Time Vacancies

We have a warm and welcoming American family residing in Kensington, who are seeking TWO x formally trained, dedicated and nurturing, Rota Nannies upon their much-loved Norland Nanny leaving after 3.5 years to go travelling. The family has been living in London since last summer and have two sets of twins; 7-year-old girls and boy/girl twins aged 3.5 years (4 in the summer).

All the children attend full-time school & nursery locally, and they are looking for nannies who can seamlessly integrate into the family environment. This is a 24/7 on/off 'Rota' position with a mid-week handover and flexibility to support with travel. Despite contractually being 24hrs-on-call, the parents will wake up with the children at night (if needed) but will required on-call support for family travel and when away personally or on business trips abroad.  

Role Responsibilities:

• Preparing meals for the children, as well as working alongside the family's housekeeper to keep on top of the twins' laundry and wardrobes.

• School drop-offs and pick-ups (the family like their children to walk to/from school), ensuring the children are ready and prepared for their day.

• Assisting with homework and supporting the children’s development through fun, age-appropriate activities and play.

• Planning the children’s weekly schedules; including pre-booking activities, events and playdates.

• Maintaining open and positive communication with both parents regarding the children’s progress and any concerns that may arise.

• Travel support - assisting with childcare during trips and ensuring a smooth routine. (Note: for holidays involving sea/swimming pool activities the family usually have additional temporary cover with two nannies on duty.)

• Encouraging values of kindness, respect, good etiquette and responsibility in the children.

• Light family PA duties and household errands.

Our client has a preference towards Norland-trained applicants, having had several long-term Norland nannies work for their family. This role is also best-suited to a candidate who has had previous experience of working with multiple children in a busy family setting and who is happy to travel internationally with family abroad.

Candidate Requirements:

• Ideally Norland-trained or possessing a degree in a related field (or equivalent formal training).

• Active, outdoorsy candidate with a fun, caring and nurturing personality. 

• Reliable, punctual and trustworthy; with strong organisational skills and ability to multiple. 

• Passionate about working with multiple children and supporting their development.

• Good team player with open communication. 

Our clients are based close to High Street Kensington tube station, with the children’s schools and local amenities all in easy walking distance. The family are keen to have ideally both, but at the very least, one of their 'Rota' nannies in place ASAP - with some flexibility for the ‘right’ applicants. 

A top competitive salary available, depending on experience and qualifications. If you are a dedicated and experienced, Norland-trained, Rota Nanny who is passionate about working with children and is looking for a loving family to join, we would love to hear from you!
