Afterschool childcare - 5 days / week - needed

[jemaolzo]

We are looking for an after-school nanny for our children ? 14 year old daughter (Year 10) and 11 year old daughter (Year 7). While the girls are no longer ?young? and no longer require full-time ?care?, they (and we!) still appreciate having someone in our home after school, to welcome them home and to be a responsible adult in the house.

The role involves approximately 20 hours during term-time (~3pm to 7pm) and is mostly full-time (9am to 7pm) during school holidays. There may also be the opportunity for additional hours on an ad hoc basis during term time.

We are looking for someone warm & caring with a sense of fun. You must also be responsible, reliable, trustworthy and organised ? e.g. keeping track of the girls? schedules and helping them to be organised.

Your primary responsibilities will include supervising homework, cooking the girls? evening meal, coordinating after-school activities, and being a friend to the girls. You will also be expected to assist with light household duties such as washing / ironing of children?s clothes, tidying children?s areas and bedrooms, child-related admin etc. We have a lovely cleaner so heavier housework not expected.

You must be fluent in English and able to supervise/help with homework. A clean UK driving license is also preferred, but not required. Excellent references and a genuine enthusiasm for supporting our girls as they grow and develop required.

Please respond with your CV if interested. I will reply only to suitable candidates already based in the UK.

Thank you.
