Specialist Nanny – New Forest – SO41/0701
Hampshire
Posted 3 months ago
£18–£20/hr | Full-time | Employed via Gingham Nanny Agency
We are recruiting a compassionate and proactive specialist nanny to support a wonderful family in the New Forest.
This is a unique opportunity for a nanny who wants to make a meaningful impact—not just in the lives of two children (aged 10 and 7), but within a wider team of professionals dedicated to their wellbeing.
These are delightful children, led by an inspirational mother who is looking for an extra pair of hands—someone to share the load and take some responsibility during her downtime, ensuring her children continue to receive the same love, care, and guidance she gives them every day.
The role involves supporting children who have experienced past trauma and a brain injury, and it requires empathy, flexibility, and a collaborative spirit. An interest in yoga, mindfulness, and healthy eating would be a real advantage.
Key Duties:
• Primary care for the 10-year-old (currently home-schooled)
• Support with the 7-year-old’s routine, including school drop-offs and after-school clubs
• Plan and deliver engaging weekly activities
• Prepare and support healthy meals
• Light housekeeping and full nursery duties
• Maintain a nanny diary (training provided)
• Occasional dog walking and errands
Hours:
• Monday to Friday, 8:00am–5:00pm
• Occasional evenings or weekends (planned in advance)
Requirements:
• Driver with full, clean UK licence
• Paediatric First Aid
• Enhanced DBS
• Contactable references
• Ofsted registered (or willing—we will cover the cost)
• A nanny who thrives on an active lifestyle—the family love the outdoors and actively use the natural surroundings every day
• Experience working with children with additional needs, trauma, SEND or medical/therapeutic requirements is not essential (training will be provided), but it is a bonus
• Confident, proactive, and calm personality with a positive, can-do attitude and a high-energy approach to each day
Benefits:
• Employed through Gingham Nanny Agency
• Full employment benefits: pension, holiday pay, and CPD
• Bespoke training in safeguarding, brain injury and therapeutic care
• Ongoing support from a highly experienced team
• Placement based in the stunning New Forest National Park, close to the sea and forest edge
