Job description

A warm and welcoming family in Victoria Park is seeking an experienced, nurturing, and proactive nanny to care for their baby boy. The role will begin part-time, with the intention that this arrangement will continue for some time before expanding to full-time, depending on family needs. The family values a child‑led, nurturing, and developmentally focused approach. They are looking for someone who brings emotional intelligence, positive energy, and a genuine interest in supporting early learning and exploration.

Key Requirements

• Strong baby experience (4 months+) with a clear understanding of developmental milestones.
• Paediatric First Aid qualification.
• Demonstrated continued professional development – keeps up to date with childcare best practice, early years development, and modern approaches.
• Physically fit and active – the home has three sets of stairs; the family is very outdoorsy and would like their son to have an active, nature‑rich childhood.
• Able to swim and willing to take the baby to swimming lessons, joining in when needed.
• Comfortable implementing a flexible rhythm rather than a rigid routine, supporting secure and predictable days.
• Knowledge of age‑appropriate activities, sensory play, music, reading, and early stimulation.
• Confident organising social opportunities, local groups, and engaging outings.
• Open communicator and team player, working collaboratively with parents.
• Happy to sign a contract including a non‑disclosure clause.

Role Overview

• Provide attentive, loving care for an active baby in a supportive, developmentally rich environment.
• Plan a stimulating daily rhythm with a balance of structure, exploration, and free play.
• Organise outings, groups, and activities to encourage early socialisation.
• Support early language exposure through songs, stories, and everyday interaction.
• Take the baby to swimming lessons and participate when needed.
• Assist with feeding, naps, and general daily care in line with the family's preferences.
• Maintain a safe, calm, and engaging environment that encourages curiosity and independence.

Ideal Candidate

• Emotionally intelligent – able to "read the room" and adapt to the family's needs and rhythms.
• Flexible – comfortable transitioning between shared care and sole charge depending on mum's unpredictable business days (which can change last minute).
• Warm, thoughtful, and developmentally minded, with a genuine passion for early childhood.
• Active and outdoorsy, enjoying nature walks, park trips, and outdoor exploration.
• Brings an additional language – Spanish preferred, but French or Mandarin also welcome, as the family values multilingual exposure for their son.
• Creative and engaged, with a natural ability to plan meaningful, enriching activities.
• Reliable, positive, and excited to grow with the family as the role evolves.

Details

• Days & Hours: 3 days per week, 9am‑5pm, with flexibility
• Child: B8 months in March
• Start Date: March 2026
• Travel: TBD
• Languages: Fluent English; second language desirable (Spanish preferred, French or Mandarin also welcome)
• Salary: £22‑27 gross per hour, depending on experience and qualifications
