Driver Nanny-Housekeeper, Job ID J18AA5R - An organised, proactive and experienced full-time nanny-housekeeper is sought by a family to provide childcare and household support while seamlessly integrating into their daily routine. The family is preparing to welcome their second child, due on December 31, and seeks a candidate with newborn experience who understands the unique challenges of supporting a growing family during this transition. With the mother recovering from a scheduled C-section, the ideal candidate will offer extra assistance during her recovery period. Key duties will include planning and engaging the children in fun activities, assisting the older child with school homework, preparing meals, and performing light household tasks. While the primary focus will be on the children, some light housekeeping will also be required. Essentially, the most important thing is that the children feel that they have enough focus and time spent with them doing things they love. The household includes a 4-year-old attending school, while the father works late hours from home and frequently travels for his global role. The mother will be home initially, with plans to return to work when the baby is around 9-12 months old. The nanny-housekeeper will also be expected to cook and prepare meals for the family. A driver who holds a full driving license is must, preferably with their own car, and the candidate should be comfortable with travel.
