London & Bedfordshire | Experienced Daily Nanny for Three School-Aged Children | Top Salary
A warm, welcoming and highly regarded family are seeking an experienced, organised and proactive Daily Nanny to support the care and development of their three school-aged children.
Having relocated to London from their Bedfordshire estate last year, the family now divide their time between their London residence and beautiful country home, offering the successful candidate a varied and rewarding role across both locations.
This is an excellent opportunity for a career nanny who enjoys working with school-aged children and is confident managing all child-related responsibilities, whilst working alongside hands-on parents and established household staff.
The Children
The family has three delightful children:
• Boy – Senior School age • Boy – Prep School age • Girl – 5 years old
Whilst all three children are thriving, the primary focus of the role will be supporting the younger two children, particularly the family's youngest child.
The Role
