An experienced, child led Nanny is required for this fun and welcoming family of four in Long Ashton, just outside Bristol. The family have two children, girl aged 3 years and a boy who is soon to be 1 year and would like to find a Nanny to be with them long term.They are looking for a Nanny who is kind, calm and fun. Someone who is Montessori or Pickler trained would be great as this is what the children are used to. They are not just looking for someone to spend time with the children, but want a nanny for what they can give in terms of care and education (in an informal holistic way). Their last nanny followed the Pickler approach and they appreciated how respectful that approach was and how much it promoted the little girl's independence and education about the world. Currently, the little girl goes to a Montessori nursery and they really like how they are child-led, but also with a reinforcement of social responsibility. In an ideal world they are looking for a nanny with a similar respectful, child-led approach.The 3 year old attends nursery during term time. She is smart, imaginative, funny and curious. She loves being physically active and exploring the outdoors. She also loves a quiet book or imaginative role play games. The little boy is happy, chilled and super sociable. He loves meeting new people and is always making friends with his cheeky grin. He likes exploring new environments especially when he’s with his big sister who he absolutely adores. They both love muddy adventures in the countryside and woodlands on the doorstep and the parents would like for the nanny to be proactive and to promote the children’s independence.Your duties are all child care related but it would be expected for you to keep the home tidy, organised and clean after activities and mealtimes.
