Job description

Experienced Educational Nanny / Family Assistant

A warm, professional and highly organised family based in Primrose Hill is seeking an exceptional Educational Nanny to take over from their much-loved nanny of two years, who is relocating out of London. This is a long‑term, high‑quality role suited to a confident, career nanny who enjoys working in a busy, structured household and supporting children both emotionally and academically. The children are all settled into school and nursery (the boys full‑time, the youngest part‑time), allowing the nanny to focus on high‑quality childcare, education support and family organisation. From January 2027 onwards, the role will evolve into a more nanny/family‑assistant style position, including batch cooking and light family meal prep, running errands and managing household admin, and supporting the smooth day‑to‑day running of the home. A housekeeper works 30 hours per week, so this role focuses on childcare, organisation and educational support rather than cleaning.

Key Responsibilities

• School and nursery runs
• Planning and leading stimulating, age‑appropriate activities
• Supporting homework, early learning and exam preparation
• Encouraging independence, confidence and good manners
• Organising after‑school schedules and activities
• Batch cooking and light family support from January
• Packing, preparation and support for family travel
• Creating a calm, structured and positive home environment

The Ideal Candidate

• English to a native level
• Education‑focused, ideally with a teaching, tutoring or strong academic background
• Warm, playful and genuinely loves working with children
• Confident setting clear boundaries in a busy household
• Organised, proactive and able to manage multiple schedules
• Happy in a large home with lots of stairs
• Positive, energetic and emotionally intelligent
• Driver (automatic) is preferred

Accommodation & Travel

• Live‑out preferred, but live‑in may be considered for the right candidate
• The family travels internationally 3–4 times per year (typically 1 week to 10 days at a time)
• Potential trip to Mauritius at the end of March

Position Details

• Location: Primrose Hill / Regent’s Park
• Hours: Monday to Thursday, 7.30 am – 7.30 pm
• Children: 8‑year‑old boy, 5‑year‑old boy and 2‑year‑old girl
• Travel: Yes, international (3 or 4 times per year)
