Highlights:
- Start: ASAP
- Working Hours: 2 pm – 8 pm Friday and 8 am – 8 pm Saturday and Sunday plus 6 or 10 full weeks per year

Overview
An experienced, professional and energetic Weekend Nanny is sought for a busy, sporty family based in Kensington. The position will primarily involve working from Friday to Sunday (Friday 2 pm – 8 pm / Sat and Sun 8 am to 8 pm) on a live-out basis, with very occasional weekends when the nanny may be required to live in.
In addition to the regular weekend schedule, the nanny will be required to work 6 full weeks per year (up to 10 weeks), providing holiday and additional cover when the family is travelling or when members of the nanny team are taking annual leave.
The family has five children aged 11, 10, 7, 5 and 1. At weekends, the Weekend Nanny will work alongside the Rota Nanny, who has primary responsibility for the youngest child (aged 1). The Weekend Nanny will be primarily responsible for the three children aged 5, 7 and 10, ensuring their routines, activities and weekend commitments run smoothly. Both nannies will work collaboratively, sharing responsibilities and supporting each other as needed to ensure the smooth running of the household.
During the week, the children are supported by a Rota Nanny, who has primary responsibility for the two younger children, alongside a Nanny-Governess who works Monday to Thursday and who also supports the three older children. The 11 year old requires very minimal support (e.g. will probably just come to have meals together with the other children).
The Weekend Nanny will work collaboratively with the Rota Nanny, parents and wider household staff, communicating closely and sharing responsibilities to ensure the weekends run smoothly. Flexibility and adaptability are a must!
The role may include international travel with the family, including travel throughout Europe and family ski holidays, so flexibility and a genuine enjoyment of travelling are essential.
There are no pets. A driver is preferred.
