Fixed term, full time Nanny in Bruton

This busy family of three are looking for a fixed term Nanny to care for their 2 year old.

They are looking for someone to start asap until November but with the potential of this being a little longer before they relocate to Dorset. The role is mainly child care related duties but they would like someone proactive that is happy to help with light household duties too, such as laundry, keeping the home tidy and organised, hoovering when needed, emptying and filling the dishwasher, preparing meals for the child and running any errands to ensure the smooth running of the home.

The ideal candidate will be fun, energetic with a muck in attitude. Your day will mainly be providing fun and stimulating activities for the 2 year old, being out and about exploring the lovely Somerset countryside, taking them on days out or to local groups. They may require some ad hoc weekend help but this is not essential.

This is a permanent position.
