Job description

Overview

Perfect Household Staff are delighted to advertise a wonderful opportunity for an experienced full-time nanny seeking a live-out position in the picturesque village of Fillingham, Lincolnshire. The role is based within a charming country residence surrounded by two acres of beautifully maintained gardens and a swimming pool — offering an idyllic setting for children to grow, explore, and play. The family is warm, down-to-earth, and looking for a long-term professional who will become an integral part of their household. They would like to welcome a caring, organised, and energetic nanny who will provide a balance of structure, creativity, and fun.
