A warm and busy family in Rugby are seeking a caring and dedicated Nanny, to primarily care for their 3-year-old daughter, who requires support with all aspects of her care, including feeding, moving and handling, due to a rare condition affecting her mobility and cognitive functioning. This sweet little girl loves engaging with sensory toys and activities to help promote her development.
The family also has two older sisters, twin girls aged 7, who require support with pick-ups and drop-offs at the beginning and end of the day. The family thrives on a routine for their daughters, maintaining feeding times and ensuring opportunities for physio stretches for the 3-year-old throughout the day to aid her mobility.
The ideal Nanny would have experience working with children with additional needs; however, this is not essential, and all training can be provided. Due to the child's condition, she is highly vulnerable and unable to mix much outside the family, so the ideal Nanny would be sensitive and aware of this. Knowledge and understanding of child development would be beneficial within this role to aid the child's developing communication as she progresses.
Cooking is not required for this role, as the family will cook meals ahead of time. The child’s meals will just need defrosting and preparing, which will consist of a soft food diet only. At midday, the child has a short nap, during which the family can offer a 1-hour break for the Nanny, to either rest or keep on top of light housekeeping tasks like laundry and general tidying and organization.
