FULL-TIME NANNY JOB
PRESTON, BRIGHTON | EAST SUSSEX | GB
Salary: £20–£23 per hour (gross, self-employed basis)
Job Type: Permanent, Full-Time, Live-Out
Job Overview:
Perfect Household Staff are delighted to be assisting a professional family in Brighton in their search for a reliable, experienced, and proactive Nanny to provide after-school care and light household support for their eight-year-old child. The family consists of two working parents who commute to London for work, alongside their eight-year-old son and an older child who is now in senior school and requires less hands-on care.
Brighton is a vibrant and culturally rich coastal city with excellent schools, fantastic transport links to London, and a welcoming, family-friendly community. The family are currently renovating their permanent home and will be moving back in June 2026, at which point the role may evolve to include additional household management responsibilities.
The successful candidate will be responsible for school drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing nutritious meals for the children, managing the children's laundry and bedroom tidiness, and providing occasional household errands such as posting packages, collecting deliveries, and ensuring the fridge is stocked with essentials for the children.
This is a wonderful opportunity for an experienced childcare professional who enjoys working independently, is highly organised, and takes pride in creating a safe, structured, and supportive environment for a school-aged child.
Our household staffing agency has been assisting professional Nannies and Housekeepers to find the perfect domestic staff positions for over a decade. We are one of the top boutique nanny and housekeeper recruitment agencies in the UK. If you are looking to be employed as a part-time Nanny/Housekeeper, you have come to the right place.
