A high-profile family based in Queen’s Park is seeking a reliable and experienced nanny to support care for their 12-year-old son. This is an excellent opportunity for a professional nanny who enjoys working with older children and can provide a balanced mix of independence, structure, and positive companionship during after-school hours. The role is best suited to someone calm, discreet, and confident in supporting both childcare and light household coordination within a busy family environment.
Day-to-day responsibilities include school pick-ups and drop-offs, engaging the child in age-appropriate activities, and providing a supportive presence during homework and downtime. The nanny will also prepare simple, healthy meals and ensure the child’s belongings and spaces are kept tidy and organized. In addition, light housekeeping duties related to the child and occasional light PA support for the family will be required. The role offers flexibility, with standard weekday after-school hours during term time and extended hours during school holidays or while travelling internationally with the family.
The position includes international travel on occasion, so flexibility and a willingness to accompany the family abroad is essential. This is a long-term opportunity for someone looking to become a trusted part of a private household, with a competitive salary and additional compensation provided for travel periods.
