Summary

A fabulous fixed term opportunity has become available for a four day live out nanny position in Latimer, Buckinghamshire. Although not far from a town by car, the house is in a rural setting.

You will be working with a friendly and professional family of five, taking care of their three children – two girls aged seven and five and their older brother aged nine.

The role is covering their current nanny who has an injury. It will be from 6 January 2026 – 20 January 2026.
Mum is a freelancer and mostly works from home, so this role would be a mixture of sole charge and shared care. The family are used to having a nanny and finds this works well.

The days and hours will be Monday, 12.15-18.15, Tuesday 12.15-20.15 (Mum in London), Wednesday and Thursday, 12.15-18.15 (26 hours).

The parents are keen for their children to learn and play in a balanced way. They like to be active outdoors, playing in the garden, building dens, etc. They also enjoy indoor activities such as playing games and arts and crafts.

Before the school run in the afternoon, which you will often share with Mum, you will have time to help keep the family organised. As well as general care of the children and making sure they have everything they need for the next school day (uniform prepared, homework complete, etc) the role will include light household duties (family laundry and ironing, ensuring children’s bedrooms and playroom are clean, organised and tidy, keeping the kitchen tidy, running the occasional errand, etc). Although the family has a weekly cleaner, any help to keep the household running smoothly between cleans would be appreciated (emptying the dishwasher, vacuuming when necessary, etc).

You will also be responsible for providing the children with healthy and nutritious meals, homemade as often as possible. It would be appreciated if you would occasionally make a little more, so Mum and Dad can enjoy your cooking too. The children enjoy their food and like to be involved in the planning and preparation of meals when possible.

You should be a careful and confident driver with a clean driving licence and your own fully insured car. Duty mileage will be paid.

If you are a kind, organised, energetic and fun person with a genuine love of children, working with a friendly family, this role could be a good fit for you.
