Our clients, a young family residing in Kensington, are seeking a Nanny/Manny & Language Tutor for their toddler.
They initially considered that the role would be best part-time (mornings), enough days a week for their son to consistently absorb another language. The couple are curious to find the best way to introduce a new language to their toddler - both parents only speak English but really want their son to have the ability to speak another language.
Mum is a full-time stay at home mother, so the role will be a mixture of sole and shared charge. The couple would ideally like the Nanny to speak to their son in another language - play with him, take him to the park and museums, sing songs, read to him and teach him numbers/letters, play puzzles etc. They would like to find someone who has experience in this kind of Nanny/Tutor role from toddler through to older children.
Their son is very sweet natured, extremely bright, and intuitive. He has excellent comprehension skills and has a great understanding of his surroundings.
The ideal candidate will fundamentally be someone who is kind, patient, responsible and consistently thoughtful - with a sense of fun. The family are looking for someone to stay long-term and fundamentally become a part of their family unit.
It is a MUST that you possess the following:
1. Native or fluent in either French, German, Italian or Spanish
2. Prior experience in a Nanny/Tutor role
3. Glowing references
4. DBS checked
