Detailed description of the job

Italian-speaking Part-Time Nanny – West Hampstead

A warm and professional family in West Hampstead is seeking an Italian-speaking part-time nanny to support the care of their two-year-old son. The position is ideally to start as soon as possible, although the family is happy to wait for the right long-term candidate.

The role is primarily afternoon-based during term time, as the child attends full-time nursery. Working hours will typically be from 3:30 pm until approximately 7:30 pm, with some flexibility on the finish time. During school holidays, the family will require full-time support on working days.

The nanny will be responsible for picking up from nursery, age-appropriate care after nursery, including engaging play, supporting routines, and assisting with meals. The child is a fussy eater, so the family is looking for someone patient, encouraging, and kind, with a calm and gentle manner around food and daily routines.

The ideal candidate will be a native Italian speaker, reliable, and emotionally attuned to toddlers. A background in childcare or education would be highly valued, as would flexibility and a genuine interest in building a long-term relationship with the family.

This is a long-term role suited to someone seeking consistent part-time work during term time, with increased hours during holidays, and who values continuity and stability in a family setting.
