Super family, recently relocated to the Netherlands from London, close to beautiful beaches and also Amsterdam. Beautiful, large family home, surrounded by garden. They have a swimming pool, sauna, tennis court and gym. All at your use.
The nanny has her own separate entrance inside the house.
Their current nanny started with them 8 years ago as the housekeeper and became the nanny. she has been with them 8 years! both sides very happy. But she needs to go back to UK
The family travels fairly often, mostly within Europe and would be very happy if nanny joins them - although it is not a fixed requirement.
Both boys are healthy normal, active boys. Both are smart and also tall and look and act older than they are. Nanny needs to be able to match them in quick-thinking - and not be a push over!
The children have boundaries but the parents are not overly strict (they are not Victorian parents) Nanny can be firm, but they don't want the boys to be overly told us, instead, explain the rules etc in a positive way.
Both parents work, the dad travels a lot. He is mother tongue English speaker, and the only one in the family to be native English speaker - therefore they love their nanny to be also.
A nanny who is sporty and active and will enjoy being active with the children will thrive in this family.
Hours are 40 per week. They would be very happy with split hours, eg. Mon-Fri 7.30am til 9.30am and then 2pm til 6.30pm. During the day nanny can go to the gym, meet friends etc. But they are otherwise able to offer single shift hours, ie 10am til 18.00
There are some light housework duties to be done during the day, but if you don't want to do this, you can work fewer hours and they can get a housekeeper also (will impact on salary offered of course)
Family has a dog, but no dog care actually needed.
Mannies and nannies may apply!
Nanny for our boys, household (although we have a cleaner coming too) laundry, ironing, groceries, cooking, walking the dog
