The child is currently in CM2, with plans to transition to Lycée Français next year.

A proactive and experienced weekend nanny is required to care for two children, aged 11 and 6, in Sloane Square. The youngest child, aged 6, is neurodiverse and has ADHD, so we are looking for a nanny with experience in special educational needs (SEN), particularly someone with a background in supporting children with ADHD. The ideal candidate will be confident in managing schedules, planning engaging and age-appropriate activities, and providing the structure and routine the child needs.
The role will primarily focus on the youngest child, ensuring that his specific needs are met in a supportive and nurturing way. You will be responsible for creating and implementing a structured and fun weekend routine that keeps both children entertained and engaged. This may involve taking the children on outings to parks, museums, or other child-friendly places around the city. A strong knowledge of London, especially Chelsea, is important to ensure the children have a variety of stimulating experiences. Cooking for the children is also an essential part of the role.
The family is looking for someone with a strong understanding of children this age, and a background in SEN, particularly ADHD would be a great bonus. This position is perfect for a dynamic, hands-on nanny who enjoys working with children of different ages and can provide a fun, structured, and nurturing environment. If you are interested in joining this family, we would love to hear from you.
One of our long-standing clients is seeking a dedicated, permanent, full-time nanny to join their family in Miami. This lovely family recently relocated from Europe and welcomed a new addition, a baby girl born in July. Their young son, who is now four years old, is a delight to care for and attends preschool full-time. We have placed several temp nannies with this family since their son was born, all of whom can vouch for how wonderful they are to work with!
The ideal candidate will speak German fluently and have the right to work in the United States. The role includes caring for a baby in an established routine (thanks to an experienced maternity nurse) and assisting with light preschool support for the older child when needed. The family is semi-formal, so professionalism, presentation, and good manners are highly valued.
This is a wonderful opportunity to work with a welcoming family in a dynamic and supportive role.
We are seeking a nanny to care for our two boys, ages 3 and 5, during weekday mornings and occasional babysitting. The position involves working from 6:30 AM to 8:30 AM on weekdays and from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM on Saturdays.
You will be working alongside another nanny who covers the daytime hours. The parents are busy UHNW professionals - dad is Swedish and mum is Brazilian (hence the Portuguese need!)
The ideal candidate will be reliable, caring, and able to engage with young children. The boys are energetic and curious, so we're looking for someone who can create a fun and nurturing environment. Occasional babysitting outside these hours may also be required.
If you're fluent in Portuguese and enjoy working with children, we'd love to hear from you.
A warm, fun-loving family in Parsons Green is seeking a cheerful and experienced French-speaking nanny to care for their two children, a bright and active 7-year-old girl and a playful 4-year-old boy. The family has a great routine in place and values a nanny who can bring energy, creativity, and a smile to their day while maintaining a firm but fair approach.
The role is part-time during term time, with hours from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM Monday to Friday, starting at 12:00 PM on Wednesdays. During school holidays, the family requires additional hours to support their busy schedules. Travel is part of the role, with one week during half-terms and two weeks in the summer spent in Europe.
The nanny will take full responsibility for all duties related to the children, including their laundry, keeping their spaces tidy, and preparing healthy, balanced meals. With activities and routines already well-established, the family is looking for someone organised and proactive who can seamlessly fit into their lives.
Fluency in French is essential, as the children are learning English, and the family wants to foster their bilingual development. The ideal nanny will be energetic, playful, and naturally smiley, creating a nurturing environment that encourages fun while setting clear boundaries.
The household also employs a cleaner, so the focus will remain entirely on the children. There are no pets or allergies to consider, and the role does not require driving. The family would like to conduct face-to-face interviews and are ready to welcome the right person as soon as possible.
If you're a caring, organised nanny who loves working with children and can bring joy and structure to their lives, this is an excellent opportunity to join a fantastic family!
