We are two professionals who need a regular nanny to look after our three children, three days a week, commencing in 2021.

The job will require some light house work (kitchen tidy up etc., making lunches), pick up from school (drivers licence essential, we can provide vehicle), supervise homework, prepare and provide dinner and supervise and assist with bedtime routine. Our 10 year old son has ADHD and autism spectrum disorder and as such, can have challenging behaviour finding it difficult to complete tasks, being oppositional and sometimes having difficulty with emotional regulation. He responds well to someone who is understanding, interested and invested in him but who also sets clear limits and a well defined routine. Our two daughters are good fun and generally pretty co-operative and capable.
