We are looking for a temporary live in nanny / au pair to help run the house and look after our two awesome sons during the summer from end of June to mid-August 2022. Our current nanny is travelling over the summer and we are looking for cover. She will return to us mid-August and stay until the end of the year when her visa expires. After that we will be looking for a replacement, so if things work out here, we’d be open to the idea of you staying with us over the Aug-December period and taking over from her after.
We live in London but will spend most of this period at our holiday home on the Isle of Wight, on the South east coast, in a friendly, active village by the sea. The job would run Monday to Friday and you would be free to travel back to London, or stay with us in the Isle of Wight at weekends.
We are a warm and welcoming family and can happily put you in touch with previous au pairs, and current babysitters, all of whom we still count as friends and part of our sons' lives. We have a big close extended family in the UK and Ireland who we see a lot of.
Our elder son is a charming, loving, Smiley, sociable, energetic 4 (almost.
5) Year old who loves swimming, running, singing, parks, drawing and lots of other things 4 year Olds like. Our younger son is 2.5 years old and loves playing with Toys, water-pistols and generally running around.
The job comes with a good sized room, both in London and the Isle of Wight. Both houses are large with mod cons, piano, Sonos throughout, Wifi, sky and apple TVs. We live a short walk from several main line stations and within a mile of Brixton Village in London.
We are looking for someone who is trustworthy, honest, energetic, reliable, outgoing, positive and who would enjoy being part of our family. Need fluent English, to enjoy cooking and to be able to drive. The role includes activities and excursions (painting, playground, baking, zoo, play dates, music groups, football, swimming).
Please be in touch if you are interested and we can discuss more exact details of the job.
Many thanks
Addie and Steve.
