Wonderful young, caring family looking for 2 rota nannies to help care for their soon to be three young children. Family lives in Notting Hill and regularly goes to their house in the country – Oxfordshire, at weekends. The rota schedule is flexible at the moment, but likely to be 2 weeks on / off rather than 1 week.

She would need to stay with the family of course when they are at their country home, or away travelling.3 children aged 4, 1.5yrs and newborn baby (November 2025).

They would love for one or both nannies to be with them there, if possible.The family is quite informal and relaxed. They appreciate a happy, loving atmosphere in their home and want the nannies who join to be similarly minded.With mum being at home, and a maternity nurse for the baby the 2 rota nannies will definitely not be overworked but the family is keen to ensure they have full childcare cover, as dad travels a lot with work. Nannies are expected to pitch and offer to help where needed.
