German fluency required. We are a family of 4 with two boys of 1 year and 5 years. We are looking for a part time nanny that can work for us on either Saturday or Sunday (preferably Saturday) for 8 hours from approx 8am to 4pm. The main task is to look after our little one of 1 year. Occasionally also both of the kids although the 5 year old needs time to get used to someone. The kids are raised bilingual with English as their main language and German their second. We would like to give them more German exposure with a German speaking nanny. Nice to have (but not a must) would be willingness to do some limited household work. We are based in W6 0 London. The job can be started as soon as possible but for the right candidate we can also wait a little. If the candidate is available for a few additional 3-4 hours during the week to talk more German with the kids we would be open to discuss it but this is not the main focus. There is no end date for engagement and we are happy to continue for years to come if it works for both parties.
This is a sole and shared care role. The parents both work full time and would
relish the opportunity to have breakfast out somewhere or go to the gym etc. initially shared care and as soon as its working well the parents will give you sole charge of baby or possibly both.
The family employs a full time nanny Monday to Friday. She has been with them for 5 years but is not a german speaker. They will keep their long-term full time nanny.
