AddressEXPERIENCED SATURDAY HOUSEKEEPER/NANNY REQUIRED IN WANDSWORTH
Location: Wandsworth, London
Contract: Part-time, Permanent
Salary: £20 p/h, negotiable (self-employed)
Status: Live-out
We are assisting a really lovely HNW family of three with the recruitment of an experienced and hard-working part-time weekend Housekeeper/Nanny for their large 4-storey home in south-west London.
The role will primarily focus on housekeeping and cleaning tasks but ad-hoc childcare for their 2-year-old daughter will also be required.
The family employ a full-time housekeeper during the week, and just need an extra pair of hands at the weekend to undertake general housekeeping duties such as tidying of the living and dining areas, unpacking the dishwasher, cleaning the kitchen, and managing laundry and ironing. There are two cats at the property, so a pet friendly candidate is required.
They are looking to appoint a highly reliable and trustworthy candidate who is able to offer flexibility in terms of duties – they frequently entertain at the weekend, so tasks may vary and can include errand running, assisting with dinner party set-up and clear-up, and helping with any weekend projects they might like to tackle, such as clearing out cupboards or wardrobes.
Working hours will generally be from 8am/9am to 2pm/3pm on a Saturday, with the possibility of occasionally working on a Sunday as well, if needed. Though predominantly a housekeeping role, you must have prior experience looking after babies/toddlers, as you will be required to look after their young daughter if they are out running errands. Ideally, they would like for the candidate to also be available from time to time to babysit on a Saturday evening.
DUTIES TO INCLUDE BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
· General cleaning and tidying up of living and dining areas
· Cleaning the kitchen, including packing/unpacking the dishwasher, taking out bins etc.
· Knowledge and experience of managing high-end laundry and ironing; folding/hanging and storing items appropriately, handling delicates
· Wardrobe management
· Errand running
· Babysitting
ESSENTIAL CRITERIA:
· Prior housekeeping experience in a high-end private household
· Fluency in English and the eligibility to work in the UK
· Discreet and unobtrusive
· Pleasant and positive
· Child friendly and pet friendly
· Able to work independently with little supervision
· Reliable, trustworthy, and responsible
· Flexible and adaptable
· DBS check or willingness to get a DBS check done
· Excellent checkable references
