Chigwell family with 3 fun, active school-age kids
My Requirements
Now hiring a capable, reliable Family Assistant (Live-Out Nanny) for a full-time role in Chigwell, Essex.
This is a professional position caring for three school-aged children — an 11-year-old boy and two girls aged 8 and 4 — in a fast-paced and busy household. The 8-year-old is bright, creative, and dyslexic, so the role would particularly suit someone patient and encouraging, who can support learning gently and help build confidence through routine and play.
The children are lively, affectionate, and full of personality. The eldest enjoys football, swimming, and being active outdoors. The girls love performing, dancing, gymnastics, and dressing up — so the role would suit someone who’s playful, imaginative, and enjoys joining in.
You’ll be working in a spacious, well-equipped family home with large landscaped gardens, dedicated play areas, and a private swimming pool — so confidence around water is essential. The parents are hands-on and regularly available, and the role is designed to complement their involvement rather than replace it.
About the role:
- Based in Chigwell, Essex (close to the Central Line)
- 152 hours/month contract, with paid overtime available
- Competitive hourly rate based on experience
- Start date flexible, ideally before 6th June
During term time (high overtime requirement):
-Morning support with school prep and drop-offs
-Afternoon pick-ups, after-school clubs, homework help, children’s meals, and bedtime routines (typically finishing around 8pm)
During school holidays:
- Full-day care including outings, activities, playdates, and supervised use of the pool and garden
- Supporting learning, confidence-building, and imaginative play
We’re looking for someone who:
- Is emotionally mature, warm but firm, and highly organised
- Has experience with primary-aged and early years children
- Is patient and supportive — particularly around learning differences like dyslexia
- Can collaborate closely with parents while also taking initiative
- Is confident supervising children in a private swimming pool
- Holds a full, clean UK driving licence and is confident driving
-Lives locally or has easy access to Chigwell
This is a permanent position, and the family is seeking a long-term appointment. We see this role as a key part of the children’s lives throughout their school years, providing consistency, care, and meaningful influence during formative years.
