ZI469 - 4-day 4-Day Live-Out Nanny - Finsbury Park, London

Overview

A wonderful, welcoming, active family seeks a 4-day per week nanny for their 19-month old boy.  The schedule is Tuesday through Friday from 8am-5pm daily but the parents would appreciate a little flexibility around this, if possible.  Ideally the nanny would start in January, with a few trial days in December.  

Responsibilities

All daily care for the gorgeous 19-month old who is active, happy and pretty easygoing.  He is in a great routine already, which involves a morning class or activity, home for lunch and a nap, and then back out to the park and playground in the afternoon.  Responsibilities will include:

• Preparing delicious, fresh, healthy meals and snacks
• Researching and attending local playgroups, classes and activities
• Child-related housekeeping: tidying and keeping his toys and belongings organised and clean
• All nursery duties, including putting him down for his daily naps 
• Continuing with a no-screen environment that the parents have implemented
• Generally supporting his continued development and well-being, ensuring his social, emotional and physical needs are met
• Providing a loving, nurturing, fun and positive environment around him
• Ideally laundry for the whole family

Requirements

• Both parents work full-time but are sometimes able to work from home.  Candidates should be comfortable in a sole charge role with the parents popping in and out occasionally
• The nanny should also be fit and active, able to keep up with an energetic baby and manage several flights of stairs
• The parents are fun, easy-going and active.  They would love to find someone who fits into their household dynamic and who brings a positive, pitch-in mentality to the role
• Intuitive and thoughtful approach to the role - great at reading the room, and with a calm, relaxed and easy-going personality
• Excellent communication skills and a great sense of humour
• The family has a gorgeous, friendly golden retriever dog.  Candidates need to be comfortable around dogs, although won't have to take on any pet-care responsibilities (unless they would like to!)
