Nanny

Experienced Temporary Nanny required in Hampstead for three energetic boys aged 5 and 9, working Monday–Thursday from September 2026 until January 2027.

A lovely family in Hampstead are looking for a professional and capable Temporary Nanny to support them until January, following an unexpected change in their current nanny's circumstances. The family have three energetic boys: 5-year-old twins and their 9-year-old brother, who boards during the week. During term time the main focus will therefore be the twins, including school runs and keeping on top of everything relating to the children while they are at school. During the holidays, all three boys will be around and the nanny will take the lead in planning fun activities and outings. With three lively boys, Mum is looking for someone confident and experienced who can bring a good balance of fun and boundaries — firm and fair when needed, while remaining warm, positive and engaging. They are accustomed to having highly professional nannies and would like someone organised, reliable and capable who can confidently take responsibility and hit the ground running. Occasional proxy parenting may be required. The role can be live-in or live-out, although the family are very happy for the nanny to live in during the working week and return home on days off. An additional weekend day would be welcomed if the nanny would like the extra hours.
