Full-Time Nanny – Cricklewood, North London (Ref: NPUNW2DP)

A busy family in Cricklewood is seeking a loving, proactive, and “muck-in” Nanny to join their household as they prepare to welcome a second child this April.

Key Responsibilities

• Childcare: Provide sole-charge care for the 2-year-old and assist with the newborn when requested by the mother.

• Household Support: Actively “muck in” with general household tidiness. While a cleaner is employed, the family requires a Nanny who is happy to maintain a clean, organized, and tidy home environment.

• Collaborative Care: Work effectively alongside the mother, who will be home for at least the first 9 months.

• Adaptability: Maintain flexibility regarding the weekly schedule, particularly on Thursdays, to suit the family’s needs.

Salary and Market Context

• Offered Salary: £550 net per week.

• Market Insight: In the London market, £550 net per week typically equates to approximately £30,000–£35,000 gross per year, depending on the tax code and specific employment structure. While many premium London nanny roles now command £600–£800+ net per week, this salary reflects a role with significant support from a stay-at-home parent and a specialized household dynamic.

Next Steps: If you are interested in this position, please ensure your CV clearly highlights your driving experience and your ability to work collaboratively in a household with a newborn and a toddler.
