Job description

A lovely couple with two children, aged 2 and 3, are looking to employ a proactive and energetic Housekeeper/Nanny to assist them in their stunning, recently refurbished 5-bedroom home in Hampshire.

The female Principal lives in the property full-time and travels to London occasionally during the week, while Dad is at home weekends.

The role is primarily focused on housekeeping; however, you will also be required to assist with the children in the morning before the nanny arrives. This includes setting up breakfast at 7 AM and helping them get dressed alongside Mum. The family also employs a full-time live-out Nanny who works from 8 AM to 6:30 PM.

Throughout your day, you will primarily focus on housekeeping and laundry. You will take a break between 11am and 3pm, and when you return, you will continue with housekeeping duties, which may include preparing a meal for the parents. Confidence in the kitchen is desirable.

After the children have had their dinner, you will help with the bedtime routine until 7:30pm.

Additionally, you will need to be dog-friendly, as the family may consider getting a dog in the future.

Main duties include:

• All housekeeping duties, cleaning, mopping, dusting, wiping surfaces
• Laundry and ironing
• Preparing dinner for the principals (the nanny cooks for the children)
• Running errands, such as going to the post office, buying groceries etc
• Covering the nannies’ duties when she is on annual leave or is unwell

The ideal candidate would be flexible, warm, friendly, and able to take initiative. Someone who has a good eye for detail. It is preferred that you are a driver with your own car.

Please see further details below:

Start: August Start (flexible for the right candidate)

Location: Andover, Hampshire

Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 gross per annum (DOE)

Accommodation: Brand new 1 bedroom annexe separate to the main house with garden, pets welcome and partners will be considered. All bills included

Days/Hours: 7am- 11 am, break until 3pm, finish at 7.30pm (Tuesday - Saturday)

Driver: Preferred with own car
