Nanny needed 4 days a week 8am-6pm!


Recommended Posts

Hi there


We are excited to be looking for a nanny to help us with our 2 lovely children (boy 3, girl 1) ideally 4 days a week, but may also be able to manage with 3 days a week for the right person. We would like to find someone reliable, kind and caring but also someone who is easy to work and communicate with and above all is able to make our children smile. We would like someone who has initiative and lots of energy! We are a young and friendly household and like to instil kindness, curiosity and independence in the children as much as possible. We like to have a lot of fun with the children but there are clear boundaries and routines in place for everybody's sanity!


Mum will be returning to work ASAP ? ideally by early April but no later than 3rd May four days a week.


You can expect days to look something like this:


8am - 6pm (there is some flexibility here) taking and collecting our son to/from nursery (a 10-15 minute stroll/ scoot) where he attends 9am - 3.30pm four days a week. After drop-off, doing a late morning activity/ class with our daughter, home for lunch and her nap 1-3pm (she?s a cot sleeper!) before collecting our son and perhaps the local park or play date after school or just home for play and supper. We envisage that occasionally we will be able to finish our work slightly earlier and that will enable the nanny to finish slightly earlier too if he/she would like.


Our son's nursery is term-time only meaning that during school holidays we'd love you to take the children on fun days out or plan play dates with friends.


We have a brilliant cleaner who helps us one day a week and so any additional things we may ask of the nanny might be preparing healthy meals for the children, keeping play spaces and the kitchen tidy, perhaps unloading the dishwasher or unpacking the food shop. You won't be asked to do any cleaning or ironing!


We would so love to find someone to be an extended part of our family and someone who would be excited to be a big part of the children's lives and to watch and help them to grow. There are lots of wider opportunities for occasional evening babysitting etc. if that would appeal. Our daughter will start at the same nursery as our son when she turns 2 in March 2022 and at that point we'd like someone who can do wrap around care but also look after our home and all the responsibilities that come with that during the nursery day (9am-3.15pm). We will need a nanny for years to come also to manage the long nursery (and school) holidays.


Many thanks for your interest,

    • I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).
    • We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery
    • Hi. Does anyone know of a silver making jewellery workshop. I am trying to find something nice for my daughter’s 18th birthday.l for her and some friends but everything I find online is too pricey or can’t accommodate 10 girls. Thanks 
    • Without doubt a busy road with constant traffic - but can always put in double glazing. If you have a car, don’t expect to park right outside - prob further away but with walking distance. Agree with PeckhamNicola re train times and freight but at least not wizzing by every few minutes! Sorry but little experience in state schools - obviously you have plenty of private - Jags Dulwich College, Alleyns. Judith Kerr on Half Moon Lane - good rep - no idea whether secondary or primary  - think primary. Also Charter School North - good reputation and Ark Evelyn - no idea! You might also look at West Dulwichand Crystal Palace Schools. Try Harris Academy as well. All the best.
