CENTRAL LONDON: Trained/qualified Rota Nanny/Children's PA (G15 & G13 yrs) -one week on/off rota, driver essential - summer start

The Family:

A family based in Central London is seeking an experienced, proactive and highly organised Rota Nanny/Children’s PA to join their staffed household. Summer start (August).

The family have two daughters (13 & 15) both attending a day school in Central London. The family also have a country home where they spend regular weekends and school holidays. Along with the two daughters, the family also has a lovely Labrador who is a key part of their life.

The girls have a range of hobbies, from drama to art to music to horse riding, with the latter being a sport that both girls are pursuing actively and regularly.

The Role:

This role combines tailored care for the two girls with organisational and administrative support. It requires a candidate who can move seamlessly between hands-on care and the practical management of two busy teenagers’ lives.

The successful candidate will be calm, discreet, highly adaptable and confident managing both the children’s needs and the day-to-day demands of a busy, fast-paced household. They will be a capable, trusted adult — someone who keeps things running smoothly, provides a steady and supportive presence, and exercises good judgment across a wide variety of situations.

The role is live-in, one week on and one week off, based primarily in London but with regular time at the family’s country home. The successful candidate will work closely with the other rota nanny and as well as the housekeepers who also work on a rota basis.
