An exciting opportunity has arisen in Holland Park to join a lovely family with two school-aged children. Their long-standing nanny, who has been with them for 10 years, is sadly moving on and they are now seeking a new nanny to become part of their family. Both children are girly girls. The youngest loves performing and imaginative play with dolls, while the eldest is into fashion, design, gymnastics, drama and baking. Both are also starting to get into tennis.
Both parents work full-time and regularly travel for work, with mum working from home one day a week. They are therefore seeking a confident and experienced nanny who is happy to take on full sole-charge responsibility.
