Looking for an au-pair urgently!

Hello


We are a young, busy family of 3 living in Camberwell/Peckham looking for someone to join our family and help look after our little boy for a few hours each week day (with some occasional babysitting too). This will leave plenty of time (i.e. 9.30-5pm would be completely free)for someone looking to spend that time working, studying or exploring London!


Our little boy will turn 2 at the end of January 2020. He is a very bright, busy little character with plenty of charm and cheekiness!


We are looking for someone to join our family and to help out each day taking our little boy to nursery in the morning and collecting him in the afternoon and doing bath time, as well as helping round the house with some light housework and occasional babysitting.


During the week, we would expect you to start at 8am to take Jack to nursery. We would then expect a little bit of help around the house e.g. putting Jack's clothes in the laundry, tidying away his breakfast etc. This should mean that you would be free from around 9.30am each day until 5ish.


We would then expect you to collect our little boy from nursery and bring him home to give him his bath and get him ready for bed (he is given tea/dinner at nursery). Then we would usually expect to be home to put him to bed at least 3 times a week but would otherwise expect you to do this, finishing work at about 7pm. We would also ask you to do some occasional babysitting (never more than twice in one week).


We do a weekly shop online and have found from experience of au pairs and nannies that it is usually easiest for you to choose the food that you want and for you to cook for yourself, but we're very happy to make whatever arrangements would suit you best.


We can discuss food budget and a weekly payment to make sure that you are happy.


This is just a short-term post until Christmas as we have someone else starting in January.


Thanks


Jess

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
