Governess/Nanny – Belgravia & International Travel

Candidates must be experienced with babies and children of a similar age group and have a warm, fun and down to earth approach.

The Principal’s 4 year old daughter will be starting pre-school in the coming weeks and will be attending Monday-Friday, leaving her 14 month old brother as your main charge during the day.

A one day trial will be organised to give you the chance to engage with the children and for the family to see how you click.

This role will suit a candidate who is happy to lend a hand where needed, whether that may be making the children’s beds or emptying the dishwasher if you have a few minutes to spare.

The family are looking for a committed Nanny who will remain with them for several years and travel with them quite extensively over the next two years between New York, LA, London, Italy, France etc. They have had a beloved Nanny for several years who is soon to return to the USA.

The role will be primarily based in Belgravia until June 2021, with frequent travel expected after that.

Due to the prompt start, candidates must have an Enhanced DBS check and Paediatric First Aid already in hand.

The role is Live-out whilst the family are in London and Live-in when you travel.
