Summary:

We are looking for a bright, outgoing, energetic and caring Nanny to look after our baby daughter who will be 8 months old in January. We are busy people with demanding jobs. As such the successful candidate will need to be flexible, able to show initiative and an excellent communicator. In the future, we may consider a nanny share, and ideally would like to find a nanny who is open to this. In return we will offer a competitive salary dependent on qualifications and experience. The successful candidate will be expected to take some holidays to coincide with ours.

We are being relocated from overseas back to our home in Crouch End at short notice. My husband will be looking for work in London immediately on our return. The role will therefore be joint charge with him initially, moving to sole charge as soon as he finds work.
