10 hours work in Acton for Toddler Monday - Thursday

by Lisa • Ealing
The position will be to look after our daughter Aria who is years old. We live about a 20 minute walk from the Nursery in between Ealing Common and Acton Town tube station. We would be looking for a Nanny who can do pick-up until myself or Husband gets home, this would be 4.30-7.30 but pick up can be later at 5.30 if needed, ideally 2-3 nights per week . We would also probably request extra hours that we can flex which would be weekend or extra week evenings. We could pay you for 10 hours a week to make it worth your time even if you don't work all of those hours. Myself (Lisa) and Husband (Sam) both work in the city, are non-smokers and have no pets. We live in a spacious 4 bedroom house with lots of space for Aria to play in. The role would include picking Aria up from Nursery, giving her a snack before bed and bottle feed, bedtime routine and putting her to bed for 7.15. She has been sleeping through the night since 4 months and usually goes down pretty quickly.
