Role: Weekend Nanny
Location: Chelsea, London
Days & Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, with occasional babysitting by prior arrangement
Children: Two children, aged 5 and 1
Salary: £400 per 24 hours
Driver: Preferred but not essential
A lovely family in Chelsea is seeking a kind, engaging, and experienced weekend nanny to care for their two young children. This is a wonderful role for someone who genuinely enjoys nurturing young minds and creating fun, enriching weekends filled with warmth, creativity, and structure.
The ideal nanny will bring a calm, caring energy and a proactive approach to planning age-appropriate activities both at home and outdoors. You’ll encourage curiosity and confidence through play, learning, and exploration – from arts and crafts and storytelling to park trips and adventures around London. The family values someone who can balance fun with gentle boundaries, helping the children develop good manners, kindness, and independence.
Day-to-day duties will include preparing healthy, home-cooked meals for the children, maintaining a tidy and organised environment, and ensuring they always have clean, comfortable clothing. You’ll manage their routines with care and attention, providing a safe, stimulating setting where they can thrive.
The family is looking for a nanny who communicates well, is reliable and flexible, and who naturally fits into a warm, family-oriented household. A confident driver would be a plus but is not essential.
This is an excellent opportunity for a professional nanny who enjoys meaningful weekends with young children and would like to work with a welcoming family in one of London’s most sought-after areas.
