  • Nannies may remain in residence or travel independently on days off.

Duties:

  • All nursery duties, including children’s laundry and maintaining tidy bedrooms/play areas.
  • Preparing fresh, nutritious meals for the children (support available from a chef in Barbados).
  • Supporting daily routines and developmental activities.

Additional Support:

  • London: Housekeeper twice weekly.
  • Ireland: Full-time housekeeper.
  • Barbados: Full household staff including chef.

Requirements:
