Day-to-Day Duties and Responsibilities

Day-to-day, the role involves thorough home cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, and occasional errands. Dishes, window cleaning, and changing bed linen are expected regularly.

You may also be expected to care for household pets, manage plants, and ensure rooms remain tidy and organised. Kitchen and bathroom cleaning are priority tasks.

There may be occasions where you are asked to house sit or help with packing and unpacking during family moves or travel. Attention to detail is highly valued.

Your work week will range from 45 to 50 hours, supporting a busy family that values reliability and professionalism. Being proactive is a plus.

The family prefers a candidate who excels both in maintaining cleanliness and in offering occasional childcare support when required.

Pros of the Role

This role offers the security of a live-in position, with negotiable pay. The generous weekly hours can lead to stable and consistent income.

Applicants will benefit from clear expectations, a structured routine, and the opportunity to develop further skills in pet care and property management.

Cons of the Role

The main challenge is the requirement for significant previous experience — only those with at least five years’ paid experience should apply.

Additionally, you must be comfortable with household pets and be available for a live-in arrangement, which might not suit everyone.

Final Verdict

If you are seeking a stable, live-in housekeeping and nanny role and have the verified experience, this opportunity balances challenge with security. It’s ideal for experienced candidates seeking meaningful, long-term employment.
