Part-Time Nanny in Lustleigh, Dartmoor 20 hours a week - £20.00 GPH
Two small humans, a bit of beautiful chaos, and a household powered by snacks and good humour.
A warm, welcoming family in the beautiful village of Lustleigh, on the edge of Dartmoor, is looking for a calm but energetic nanny to support their 5-year-old and 18-month-old. If you can keep up with a little boy who thinks he’s training for the Olympics — but also know how to bring calm and balance when needed — you might just be the perfect fit!
Their 5-year-old manages some sensory processing challenges following recent medical treatment. Their older sibling has complex needs and her own care team, so experience with additional needs (or a natural, thoughtful approach) is important. You’ll be joining a family that truly values kindness, teamwork, and a good sense of humour.
What you’ll be doing:
– Keeping pace with an energetic little boy — and knowing when to gently press the brakes
– Caring for the 18-month-old with warmth and patience
– Helping with light household tasks and mucking in wherever needed
– Supporting family life with a calm, positive attitude and a sprinkle of fun
– Driving to and from local activities (own car essential)
What we’re looking for:
– Experience with children who have additional needs (or the right instinctive approach)
– Energetic enough to keep pace, calm enough to bring balance
– A grounded, flexible personality with a good sense of humour
– Confident navigating a lively, loving home environment
– A driver comfortable with Dartmoor’s country roads
– Happy around animals (the household includes a cat, a dog and two gerbils!)
This is a fantastic opportunity for a caring, capable nanny who’s ready to join a warm family where no two days are quite the same — but laughter and teamwork are always guaranteed.
P.S. If you can prep lunch, find a missing shoe, stay calm while the baby redecorates with raisins, and occasionally join in the zoom races — then get in touch!
