They currently have a large home on the canal with a sandy beach area where the girls can play (strict supervision obviously). The outdoor area also has a trampoline. The family also enjoy annual overseas travel, and there is an option for the nanny to travel with them.

She’s considerate and easygoing with the girls, but reliable and consistent.
Strong time management is important, with some extra help needed to help support the daily household run smoothly. Beyond childcare, she prepares meals for the girls, keeps play and living areas clean and tidy through the day, does a light, quick vacuum of the main high-traffic areas where the kids are constantly in and out, and assists with washing, folding, and putting away. Above all, we’re looking for someone organised, dependable, and hands-on, who treats the girls with the same care and she would her own.

It is important to us that our nanny understands the importance of emotional regulation and can provide calm, consistent guidance, while being open to working alongside us in supporting this approach.
Our ideal nanny takes initiative and enjoys creating a well-organised environment where the children can thrive. They will naturally stay on top of the children's daily routines and household tasks related to their care, ensuring play areas are reset and organised at the end of the day, benches, floors and the highchair are cleaned, and everything is put away ready for the next day.
They will be happy to prepare healthy meals and snacks for the children, including lunches and dinner when required, along with cleaning up afterwards. They will also assist with keeping the children's bedrooms tidy and organised, resetting clothing when needed, and ensuring school bags and the nappy bag are replenished and ready each day, with lunchboxes and drink bottles washed and nappies restocked.
Most importantly, we are looking for someone who loves engaging with children and takes the initiative to plan fun, creative, and developmentally appropriate activities. Whether it's music, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, imaginative play, animal experiences, playground visits, or water play, our ideal nanny will bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a genuine love of helping our children learn, explore, and enjoy each day.

Their long-term nanny is retiring and they are looking for a warm, caring, and reliable person to become an extension of their family to help support the afternoon rhythm of our busy household.
Their ideal candidate is someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with children, is nurturing and engaging, and is happy to jump into the day-to-day flow of family life.
