We have two children, a girl (7) and a boy (4) and are based in Helmdon, Northamptonshire.
We are looking for someone who bursts with energy, confidence and positivity, who can set boundaries, be firm but is also full of love and cuddles. Someone who loves nothing more than putting on the children's wellies and playing in the garden, kicking a ball, planting vegetables, snuggling on the sofa with a book, creating an invention out of egg boxes and paints or having a party with lots of friends.
Also someone who is proactive, organized, takes initiative and is able to complete tasks to a high standard with strong attention to detail.

Preparing well balanced and nutritious meals for the children and ad hoc food shopping.
Preparing/organising suitable activities to form part of the daily routine (creative play, playdates etc.)
Supporting both children with their homework (e.g. reading, writing and maths etc.)
Coping with illness for either child and administering medicine, as required.
