typical nanny duties + school runs (needs to be able to drive)
Family close to Hamstead Heath tube (and also close to Gospel Oak) is looking for a new nanny. Their current nanny has been working for them for 10 years but now must sadly leave them. They are hoping to find another special nanny who they will form a close bond with.
They would love to find a german speaker; to help support the children's learning of German, in the easiest and most natural way - through daily life. It is their 'Vatersprache'.
As the children are at school 30 mins away nanny must be able to drive.
The children are aged 7y and 10yrs and are at school during the day, but the family needs a full time nanny as there are of course many school holidays to cover and also taking the children to and from school (30 mins by car). During the day nanny can prepare afternoon snacks and their evening meal and maybe some fun/ interesting activities. If nanny is happy to there are also some PA duties, or light grocery shopping etc to be done.
As there children attend school full time there will be considerable down time. they would be very grateful if nanny could on occasion work later, if the (single) parent cannot get home in time or has an evening meeting.
The children visit their grandparents in Austria every year and have a close connection. They are motivated to learn the language better to be able to communicate more easily with family. The family also has a home in Spain where they visit regularly. Nanny could be invited to join them, but is certainly not required to.
The family has no pets.
They employ cleaners.
