Job description

3 DAY NANNY/HOUSEKEEPER, CAMBRIDGE CB1 JAN 27 START

A lovely, professional family are seeking a caring, organised and positive nanny/housekeeper to join them from January 27 on a permanent basis.

Caring for two happy girls who are 5 and 3 and who love playing in the garden, dance and arts and crafts. Both children attend preschool/school (same site) so during the term time the role would be split between nannying and housekeeping duties, and then in the school holidays the role would be more focussed on nannying duties and fun days out.

The role is offered on a 3 day basis – Monday, Tuesday and Thursday (the Monday could be swapped out for another day for the right nanny). The hours would be 1pm-7pm so 18 hours per week.

Main duties will include carrying out household duties such as the laundry, changing beds, grocery shopping, cooking a healthy family meal and tidying. At around 4pm you would then pick up the girls from school either using the family’s cargo bike or their car. Once home you would encourage age-appropriate games and learning and get them ready for dinner and bed.

Somebody who is enthusiastic and professional would suit this family, alongside someone who is discrete.
