Job description

A country loving Housekeeper/House Manager is sought for this welcoming and friendly family in Somerset.

The family are looking for someone to be easy going, become a part of the family, kind, loving and fun. Your duties will be engaging in activities with the children (twins aged 3 years), sometimes working alongside Dad, helping prepare meals, helping with bath time and clearing up after mealtimes, tidying play areas, taking them out for the day and some help with family laundry, ironing, grocery shopping, keeping rooms tidy and organised and generally ensuring the home is organised and runs smoothly.

The children love to be outdoors, swimming, crafts and imaginative play. The family live in a large Georgian house on a small country estate. They also have 2 horses so someone who has experience of horses would be a bonus but not essential. Dad has an older daughter (8 years old) who will be there every other weekend so experience of both these ages would be an advantage.
