Seeking a rota nanny to work with a 19-month old boy in Sloane Square, London. ASAP START.

The nanny will work 2-weeks on, 2-weeks off in rotation with another nanny. Weeks on will be live-in. No cooking is required (except perhaps breakfasts) but the nanny will often be caring for the young boy full-time as his mother works. Typical nanny duties will be required – taking care of the charge’s clothes, health, hygiene, and encouraging him to take care of his own toys and belongings. Similarly the nanny should be ready to organise a schedule including walks, organising trips and activities and days out.

The family travel in the summer for 2 months and typically spend 2 winter months in Switzerland, so the nanny should have a suitable passport (or Schengen visa) for this and should be flexible and ready to travel.

Pay for this role is £220/ working day.


The candidate:

The nanny should have native-level command of English, French or Russian, and be well experienced in a similar role. Some knowledge of Russian language would be a significant plus.

The candidate should have a minimum of 3 years’ experience working in a nanny position. The candidate should be ready to provide the charge with emotional support when required, involve him in sports, games and educational activities and coordinate with other household staff. The nanny would ideally be sporty and active and a confident swimmer. An educational background in childcare, nannying, child psychology, early years or similar is required.

Good, checkable references are essential.
