A young family with 2 small children, girl aged 18 months and boy aged 6 weeks are looking for a lovely, gentle, housekeeper who is not too imposing but sensitive to her surroundings, to help them in the house. Unfortunately, the mother has been taken suddenly ill with a long recovery prognosis and the father is working. They would like help 5 days a week from Monday to Friday from 8am until 6pm. Ideally, they would like flexible help depending on how well the mother is able to cope on some days, however, unless it suits someone to workvariable hours, they understand if the successful applicant needs to work the 10 hours hours offered and would prefer not to be flexible. They would like help for the next 3 months at least, with a view to continuing, entirely depending on how well the mother's health improves.

You would need to be a good cook and prepare lunch and dinner and have knowledge or be quick to learn how to prepare and sterilise babies bottles. You would need to have plenty of energy for their 18 month old who enjoys being chased around the park, and not too scared to pick up their 6 week old baby. You would also be happy to get your hands dirty and clean, wash and iron and also do all the shopping and cooking.

The family are looking for someone urgently. If you are interested, please can you email some information about yourself, including your CV, a CRB if you have one, contact details, how long you're planning to stay in London and if you have ever given any help to anyone on a personal or professional basis.

We are a small family run agency. you do not have to pay any additional agency fee.
