A family in Kinross, Perthshire, is hiring a full-time live-in nanny housekeeper to care for their two young children, offering a salary of £45,000 to £50,000 per annum, separate living accommodation, and a car for use while on duty.
The role, advertised on Home Organisers, involves caring for a four-year-old girl and a two-year-old boy in a historic five-bedroom home set in nine acres of countryside. The successful candidate must live on the property permanently and will be provided with a self-contained living space featuring its own entrance, bedroom, bathroom, living area, and kitchenette.
Duties and Schedule
Key responsibilities include supporting the children's routines, such as school pick-ups and drop-offs, preparing meals and snacks, helping them get ready, cleaning up after them, and engaging in play and activities. Additional duties cover cleaning and tidying all areas of the home, managing laundry and ironing, cooking family meals, and grocery shopping.
The position runs Monday to Friday, ideally from 7:30am to 6:30pm, with some flexibility for earlier finishes. Occasional overnight care may be required when both parents are away for work, as the family recently relocated from London to Scotland.
Candidate Requirements
The listing states: "A family moving from London to the Kinross area is looking for an experienced live-in Nanny Housekeeper to join them as they settle into a new life in Scotland. They have two young children and are looking for someone who will enjoy getting to know them, care for them warmly and confidently, and help with the household in general."
It adds: "The family would love to find someone who genuinely delights in spending time with young children, is adaptable and happy to get stuck in. Enjoying countryside life and feeling part of the local community would make this an especially good fit."
Applicants must have experience in a similar private household role combining childcare and hands-on housekeeping, be confident with young children, and hold a full driver's license. The family aims to fill the position by next month and is seeking someone to start as soon as possible.
The job was posted by Home Organisers, a domestic staffing and recruitment agency based in Weybridge, Surrey, UK.
