Job description

A super Weekend Nanny position has become available in Gloucestershire in the beautiful Cotswolds countryside.

The family live on a small farm so someone who loves the outdoors is essential. The ideal candidate will be easy‑going and confident, able to integrate well into a team with a ‘can do’ attitude. Your duties will be purely child‑care related, taking the children out for the day to places like Cotswold Farm Park and the eldest boy enjoys trains too. They have two happy and healthy boys aged 2 years and one of 7 months. The Dad is Spanish and the children are bi‑lingual, so some knowledge of Spanish may be helpful but not essential. They would love to find someone who can become a part of their team long‑term.

They share their time between London and Gloucestershire, but weekends are generally in Gloucestershire where they have a comfortable and welcoming home that respects staff and offers a home‑from‑home environment to work in. Some babysitting will be required and if someone can work a Friday afternoon too that would be a bonus.

This is a permanent position.
