Live‑out
A young, easy‑going family based in Rochester are seeking a warm, personable and highly experienced newborn nanny to support them as they welcome their first baby. Their little one will be around 3–4 weeks old at the start of the role.
This is a fantastic position for a nanny who genuinely enjoys guiding first‑time parents through the early months, offering reassurance, practical support and confidence‑building newborn care.
About the Family
- First‑time parents, relaxed and friendly in nature
- Mum is a marketing professional with a love of fashion, food and interiors; she will be on maternity leave and would value one‑to‑one guidance during the postpartum period
- Dad works in tech and enjoys sport, food and country music
- They are looking for someone who fits their calm, laid‑back energy and brings a positive, outgoing presence into the home
Role Overview
The family are seeking a nanny with strong newborn and maternity experience who can provide:
- Gentle guidance and hands‑on support with newborn routines, feeding, settling and general care
- Confidence‑building for a first‑time mum during the early postpartum months
- Light household duties
- Support with outings; a driver with their own car would be helpful, particularly as mum may be recovering from a c‑section
This is a collaborative role working alongside mum, largely not sole charge, and would suit someone who is nurturing, proactive and enjoys being a reassuring presence.
Ideal Candidate
- Warm, friendly and personable
- Strong newborn and early‑postpartum experience
- Confident supporting first‑time parents
- Happy to offer gentle guidance without being intrusive
- Comfortable working alongside a parent at home
- A driver is desirable but not essential
