Full Job Description

KENSINGTON + travel: Live-in

  • OR Daily Nanny (3 children; G8, G6 & B3 years), We have a super new role in Kensington, for professional clients who are seeking a new nanny for their 3 children: G8, G6 & B3 years. Our clients can accommodate both Live-in AND Daily applicants (if live-in then there is a little "flatlet" for the nanny with private entrance).


  • ~ The working hours are: Monday - Friday 07.30 - 18.30 + ad-hoc babysitting.

    = Both parents work full time, but try to be hands-on and involved wherever they can and will pitch in with school runs when possible. So whilst this is a sole charge, the role will be a partnership with the parents who want to be part of their children's lives and support the nanny at the same time.

    Full nanny duties will be required (though the is a cleaner who comes daily), and as the two elder children are at school, the new nanny needs to be educationally-focused and confident to support both primary school and toddler stages. The three children are all very different personalities ranging from quiet & obedient to advanced & fearless - so the children's new nanny needs to understand and embrace the differences between siblings. One thing the whole family has in common is being high-energy, sporty and active, and our clients would like their new nanny to be of the same mindset. The family (French) also eat together with the children, who are very good eaters and eat the same as their parents, so the nanny should enjoy cooking and be a confident cook as she will be cooking for the whole family for evening meals.

    There is some travel, but it is not excessive (eg: skiing in winter + someone warm & lovely in summer) and they would really appreciate the nanny being able to join them.

    A French-speaker would be the icing on the cake, but it is not a deal-breaker. However, a confident London driver is an essential requirement. And do note that our clients are considering both Live-in AND Daily applicants. Situated in the heart of Kensington, for Daily applicants, High Street Ken is the nearest underground. And if the nanny is Live-in, then there is a self-contained "flatlet", with separate entrance.

    Great salary on offer (depending on experience & training and whether the nanny is Live-in or Daily). Interviews are now taking place.

    = Start date: ASAP September/October.

    = Driver required for school runs (locally) and the youngest is currently at nursery for another 12 months).
