Description:
2 Permanent international Live in Nannies are required for a royal family based in Riyadh, working in a team of western nannies (Little Ones have placed nannies with this family multiple times over the past few years)
All Nanny duties and care (with housework and most nursery duties taken care of by other staff), working in a team of nannies. This family is well known to Little Ones as we have placed nannies with them in the past years and comes highly recommended. Supporting all aspects of development. Extensive global travel with the family. This is a fully staffed, formal household. The family are looking for a bubbly, fun, easy going and energetic Nanny, ideally with childcare qualifications/educational background with English to a native Level;
Further info for the role with the little girl – The girl attends full time school until 2.30pm (unless travelling or off sick) during term time, so the nanny has downtime during this period, and is usually asleep by 8.30pm on school nights (so on school days, the nanny typically works 2.30pm – 8.30pm, but flexibility is required). On non school days the hours a lot more full on, usually 12-14 hours a day (with 2 hour break in the day). She also has lessons (such as gymnastics) and play dates on most days. There is a nanny assistant to help during the day, a night nanny and also another member of staff who usually accompanies the nanny on outings with the child, so there is a lot of support.
Duties include overseeing the other staff members responsible for the child, helping with organising wardrobe, packing school bags and luggages when travelling, but no cleaning duties. Organising the child’s schedule, educating , playing, assisting with homework, taking her to events and play dates. She also has a dog (labrador) so the role will include helping to care for him
Further info for the role with little boy – more structured day, the nanny typically works 10-12 hour days with 2 hour break, 6 days per week (when travelling it’s often 7 days per week), the little boy have more strict routine in school and non school days and is usually in bed by 7.30pm on school nights. He has play dates about 3-4x per week. The main focus is on progressing him academically as he missed out on a lot of education during covid – so teaching background (early years/primary school) would be highly preferred. There is a nanny assistant for day time, and a night nanny – he spends a lot of time with his 2 brothers so there will be a lot of team work with the other 2 nannies as well.
