Job Specifications

A busy professional family with one child aged 8 is seeking an experienced and adaptable Nanny / Housekeeper for their main residence in the leafy Highgate area of North London.

The nearest Tube station is on the Northern Line. From time to time, travel may be required to the family's Oxfordshire residence. The household also includes two friendly dogs, a large Labradoodle and a small Shih Tzu. Other staff are employed at both properties.

This is a long-term position offering sole-charge childcare alongside housekeeping duties, working as part of a small and supportive household team.

• Preparing healthy, balanced meals for the child and family
• Managing child-related laundry and maintaining the home’s organisation
• Shopping, stock checks, and household errands
• Light cleaning and linen changes
• Maintaining a clean and well-presented kitchen
• Occasional assistance at weekends or when traveling to the Oxfordshire home

Candidate Requirements:

• Proven experience in both childcare and housekeeping within a private household
• Confident driver (pool car provided during work; parking space available)
• Friendly, discreet, and adaptable
• Highly organised with excellent time management skills
• Able to work effectively as part of a small team
• Willing to travel by arrangement
• Excellent checkable references

Schedule, Accommodation & Salary:

• Schedule: Monday to Friday (occasional weekend help)
• Hours: 7am to 7pm with a 2-hour break (manage own time during the school day)
• Accommodation: Daily preferred; room and bathroom available if staying over
• Salary: £45,000 – £55,000 gross per annum, depending on experience
