Nanny wanted in Portobello, Edinburgh for 2 little girls- 2 year old, 8 months old.

by Faith • Portobello/Craigmillar
I’m looking for a nanny to care for my 8 month old at my home during the day on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and (from March) both girls on Fridays. My 2 year old finishes nursery at 3 so it would also include picking her up from nursery (4min walk) and caring for them both between 3pm-5pm. My 8 month old will need to be fed lunch and milk (formula) and my 2 year old will need a snack(s). Both my husband and I often work from home, but not exclusively. I’m looking for someone who wants to build a close relationship with the girls and us. We live very near the beach and they love to go for walks down there and to parks in the local area.
