SNAP Job:   Daily or Live-in (Nanny/Housekeeper)                             Ref: V2372       
Description:
We are looking for a nanny/housekeeper for this family who have three children: Michelle 10 1/2 , Thorbjorn 6 and Lochlann 8. The position can be either daily or live-in. Lochlann has brittle bones and therefore can break any bone very easily. He uses wheelchair part-time, but walks around in the house most of the time. He doesn't need any lifting, he can either walk or crawl up and down stairs. He is physically small and can't walk very quickly. He is a bright and very happy little boy who is easy to get to know and work with. He loves anything to do with balls, his computer, football cards, drawing arts and crafts, cooking and baking. He is a very talkative and sociable boy! Lochlann needs someone who will make sure he is safe when playing, but not be overly protective, he needs space to be an 8 year old boy, so it is a fine line! He specifically needs someone to look out for him when attending parties and play dates. The position is very much a nanny/housekeeper role - as well as the usual nannying duties, while the children are at school there will be household duties, including ironing and cleaning. If someone likes cooking that will be a big plus! The wage is negotiable for someone with excellent experience.
