FULL TIME PERMANENT LIVE-IN NANNY ROLE
We are looking for an experienced, warm and energetic full-time live-in nanny to care for our three boys, aged 2, 4 and 7½, at our family home in Berkshire. Native Spanish speaking and driving licence required. Our two older children (aged 4 and 7½) are both at school full-time, so during the school day the nanny will primarily care for our 2-year-old. We are looking for someone who will become a trusted and long-term part of our family and who is confident managing three children of different ages.

HOURS
Monday to Friday, 7am–7pm (60 hours per week). During term time, the two older children are at school, so the nanny will primarily care for our 2-year-old during school hours, alongside school drop-offs and collections. You will care for all three children after school and during school holidays. 1 babysitting evening per week also required.

THE ROLE
The nanny will have sole-charge responsibility for the children and duties will include:
- Providing warm, attentive and engaging care for the children
- School drop-offs and collections
- Planning age-appropriate activities, outings and playdates
- Supporting the children’s routines, development and independence
- Preparing simple, healthy meals and snacks for the children
- Helping with homework and reading where appropriate
- Organising and keeping on top of the children’s schedules, activities and belongings
- Children’s laundry
- Keeping the children’s bedrooms, play areas and belongings tidy and organised
- Tidying up after the children and their meals
- One evening per week (weekdays only) babysitting.
- This is a nanny position rather than a nanny/housekeeper role. There is no general household cleaning or family laundry.

SPANISH LANGUAGE REQUIRED
We would like someone who is happy to speak Spanish with the children. They all understand Spanish already.

DRIVING
You must be a confident and experienced driver with a full driving licence. A car will be provided for all work-related driving.

LIVE-IN / ACCOMMODATION
This is a live-in role. We offer excellent private live-in accommodation within our home. You will have a newly renovated private annex comprising their own bedroom, bathroom and kitchen/seating/dining room with separate private utility area, providing a comfortable and separate living space. You will be welcome to make use of our large garden and tennis court.
