Part Time, Live Out, Nanny, Brickendon, Hertfordshire - 880877

A wonderful two or three day, live out nanny role has become available, working with a friendly and professional family who live on a farm in Brickendon, Hertfordshire. You should enjoy country life and animals, as part of the family is also a well behaved black labrador dog.

Starting in April 2027, you will be taking care of a baby who will be three months old, while his Mum transitions back to work after maternity leave. The role will be a mix of sole charge and shared care.

The hours will be 07.00-19.00 on either three days (Tues, Weds and Thurs) or two days (Tues and Thurs). Any additional or ad hoc hours will be mutually agreed and paid as overtime.

The parents are keen for the baby to learn and develop in a balanced way, helping to reach developmental milestones through lots of stimulating and educational indoor activities, such as reading stories, playing games, singing, completing jigsaws, and imaginative play, mixed with plenty of outdoor play in the garden and walks to the park. As the baby grows, the parents would be happy for you to attend local groups and activities (such as story-time at the library, music class, etc) to allow socialisation with other children, while always ensuring happiness and safety.

Although general care of the baby is the main priority, this role is to include nursery duties too. These duties will include keeping on top of the baby’s laundry, keeping the baby’s areas tidy and organised and making sure they have everything they need for the days ahead.

You should be confident with the weaning process and will provide healthy and nutritious meals (home cooked as often as possible), including batch cooking, so that there is food available for the parents to use for the baby at the weekends. Any help to keep the house running smoothly would be appreciated, emptying the dishwasher, making sure all rooms used are tidy at the end of the day, running the occasional errand, etc. The family also employs a regular cleaner.

You should be a careful and confident driver with a clean licence. There is a car available to use on duty.
