Summary

PERMANENT PART-TIME LIVE-OUT HOUSEKEEPER NANNY BEARSDEN | GREATER GLASGOW | SCOTLAND | GB Salary: £22–£25 per hour PHS Job 3627 A welcoming and warm private family based in one of Greater Glasgow’s most desirable residential areas is searching for an experienced part-time Housekeeper Nanny to provide dependable household and family support across approximately three to four afternoons per week. The property is situated in an attractive and established residential neighbourhood, well regarded for its nature, excellent local amenities, and convenient connections to Glasgow. The residence itself is a spacious and well-maintained family home offering a comfortable working environment. This is primarily a housekeeping and family-support position rather than a traditional nanny role. The family has three children, including teenagers, and is looking for an experienced all-rounder who can combine high-standard housekeeping with laundry and ironing, household organisation, family cooking, driving, and practical support surrounding the children’s schedules and activities. The successful Housekeeper Nanny must be confident working independently, using initiative, and identifying the household priorities that require attention during each working day. Other established staff are also engaged, and the successful professional will work cooperatively alongside them while assisting the principal with practical household organisation, deliveries, and the children’s day-to-day routines as required. Laundry and ironing will form an important part of the position. The family requires someone who can manage regular family laundry efficiently, care appropriately for garments and household linen, complete ironing to a good standard, and maintain everyday wardrobe organisation. Particular care will also be required around valuable furnishings, artwork, specialist household items, and delicate belongings. The childcare element will predominantly involve supporting the family’s younger school-age children with their practical routines rather than nursery-style care. Responsibilities will include school or activity-related driving, helping the children remain organised, supporting extracurricular commitments, and developing a warm but appropriately professional relationship with them. The successful Housekeeper Nanny shall therefore be confident, calm, and comfortable working with older children and teenagers. Cooking is also an important element of the position. The Housekeeper Nanny will assist with preparing straightforward, nutritious family meals and ensuring that food is ready around the household’s varying schedules. As some family members have a significant food allergies, the successful professional must be conscientious about ingredients, cross-contamination, kitchen hygiene, and following the family’s established food-preparation procedures. A confident driver is essential, as the role involves transporting the children to school and extracurricular activities. This may include regular journeys connected with sporting and equestrian commitments. An automatic vehicle can be provided for work-related driving if the own vehicle is absent. The family would appreciate reasonable flexibility during school holidays and around changing family commitments. On a small number of occasions each year, additional overnight or live-in support may be requested by prior agreement. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Housekeeper Nanny or private-household all-rounder seeking a stable, long-term position with a family who values loyalty, initiative, flexibility, and high professional standards. The family is hoping to establish an equally positive and trusted long-term working relationship with the professional. Only applicants with a valid right to work in the United Kingdom will be considered for this position.
