Part-Time Nanny / Mum’s Helper — Two Fun Little Boys We’re looking for a fun, energetic and caring nanny / mum’s helper to join our family and help with our two boys, who are 22 months and 8.5 months old. They’re both very sweet, friendly boys who love being outside, exploring and staying busy. They can be a little shy at first, but once they warm up, they’re very loving and playful. We’re looking for someone in their 30s / 40swho genuinely enjoys being around little kids and has lots of energy and enthusiasm. Someone who is naturally playful, creative and happy to get down on the floor and play, can come up with games and activities, take them outside and generally keep up with two active boys. We’re members of Cocoon Club, so there will be lots of trips there where the boys can stay busy. The role would include: * Looking after both boys for a few hours while Mum runs errands, works out or works on personal projects * Helping Mum with the boys — sometimes taking care of one child while Mum is with the other * Taking the boys to Cocoon Club, the park and other activities * Playing with them and coming up with age-appropriate games and activities * Helping with meals and snacks * Tidying up after the children and cleaning the table/kitchen after they eat * Helping keep their play areas and things organised What we’re looking for: * Warm, kind and patient * Creative and playful * Very safety-conscious and responsible * Comfortable caring for two young children * Happy to be hands-on and involved rather than just supervising * Reliable, proactive and easygoing * Someone who will become a familiar and trusted person in our family Mum is home and not working full-time, so this is a bit of a hybrid nanny + mum’s helper role. There will be times when we’re all together and you’re helping with one of the boys, as well as several hours when Mum is out and you’ll be responsible for both.
