Gingham Nanny Agency is looking for a warm, experienced and emotionally intuitive Specialist Nanny to support a lovely family with twin boys aged 5.
The boys have experienced the very significant loss of their mother at a young age. They are doing well and have a stable routine, but the family would particularly welcome a nanny who has an understanding of childhood bereavement and parental loss, and who can provide consistent, sensitive support as the boys grow.

About the Role:

Location: Blackheath, London SE3
Days: Monday–Friday
Term-time hours: Approximately 3:30pm–7:30pm for school collection and after-school care
School holiday hours: Approximately 8:00am–7:00pm (Final working pattern is subject to discussion with the family)
Start: September 2026
Contract: Permanent | Live-out

The role will include:

– School collections
– Preparing meals for the children
– Bath and bedtime routines
– Homework support
– Planning fun, age-appropriate activities and outings
– Supporting routines and boundaries
– Child-related light household duties
– Keeping appropriate nanny records/daily notes

The boys particularly enjoy jigsaws, board games, imaginative play, hide-and-seek, aeroplanes, trains, swimming and outdoor activities.

The ideal nanny will be:

– Kind, caring and considerate
– Energetic and fun
– Emotionally sensitive and nurturing
– Confident supporting children who have experienced bereavement
– Happy to get involved in play, outings and homework
– Reliable and able to provide stability and consistency
– A non-smoker

A car is not essential, although having access to one could be beneficial for days out.
This is a very special opportunity for a nanny who understands that excellent childcare is not only about practical care, but also about providing security, warmth and emotional consistency during a child’s formative years.
Full training provided.
