Jemima and Sarah are delightful twin girls who are approaching their first birthday. They are happy and easy to be with, each with a calm nature. Jemima is currently undergoing treatment for liver cancer (hepatoblastoma) and receives nutrition via an NG tube with a central line while continuing chemotherapy. Sarah is active and enjoys play; both follow a shared daily routine and benefit from opportunities to play, explore and learn.

This part-time role centers on providing sole care for both twins across two days each week. The nanny will manage the girls' shared routine while providing additional support for Jemima, including NG tube feeding and care related to ongoing treatment, ensuring both children receive equal warmth, attention and opportunities to learn, play and thrive. On occasion, the nanny may provide sole care for Sarah during hospital appointments. Community nurses visit the family home twice a week to provide Jemima's clinical care; support includes preparing equipment, comforting Jemima, and assisting the nursing team during procedures. Full training, including NG tube feeding, will be provided. There is a lunch break during the twins' afternoon nap and light child-related household duties. The family also has an older daughter, who is almost four years old and attends nursery; this role is dedicated to the twins. The role is 2 days per week, 9:00am to 6:00pm, ideally Wednesday and Friday, with flexibility on working days for the right candidate. Salary remains £20.00 - £25.00 gross per hour, depending on experience.

This role would suit an experienced nanny, complex care nanny, children's nurse, paediatric healthcare assistant or childcare professional who enjoys working with babies and wants to make a genuine difference for two young children. Candidates should be calm, organised, reliable, value routine, communicate openly, and have a strong understanding of safeguarding and infection control.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a warm, welcoming family and provide sole care for two delightful twins, one with complex medical needs. You'll receive specialist training, work with an experienced community nursing team, and gain valuable complex-care experience while becoming part of a well-organised family. There is potential for extension beyond October and for additional hours as the family's needs evolve.
