Nanny job ref:  PLI/Bucks – Position Filled

This is a unique role for someone who genuinely loves children and is looking for a job with a difference!! The family have had a fantastic Kiwi whose visa is sadly coming to an end. Looking above all for someone with a fantastic `can do attitude` kind, great fun, flexible and relaxed to fit in with the family`s routine.

The children enjoy a range of different activities including creative play, climbing trees and exploring, reading, cooking and mucking about outdoors. It is a warm, busy household with pets.

A teaching qualification or Montessori background would be amazing though not essential and an interest in cooking would be brilliant.

The hours are generally 10 hours a day however can be less when the father is home, you will be required to do two nights babysitting per week, which may or may not be used. This is not strictly a nanny role other than helping with the children there are errands and PA duties, plus lots of travel. A driver is essential.
Separate accommodation is provided with utilities paid (only 5 min from the family home). Located in a pretty village, only 40 mins into central London. Flexible start for the right person. £400 net per week + very generous holiday allowance. Do call us if you would like to know more as this is truly a brilliant job.
