I am a professional artist and single mother. My business is growing rapidly and having just hired a PA I am now looking for a live-in nanny/housekeeper/assistant to help manage my life and look after my very affectionate and chatty 7 year old autistic son Freddie. We live in a 3 bedroom maisonette flat very close to shops and transport links. The job comes with a double room and the role would be Monday to Friday with the occasional weekend. There are times when I will be working abroad so I need someone who is very confident with children and has experience of SEN. Applicants need to be able to drive and have their own car. The hours would vary but help would be required in the mornings and afternoons. I need someone to help tidy and clean, do the laundry, go to the supermarket and prepare healthy evening meals for both me and Fred. He will need picking up from school, taking to his swimming lessons and I would occasionally require some babysitting in the evenings. I want someone enthusiastic, friendly, warm, punctual, trustworthy and kind who is good with children, confident and well presented. When Fred is at school I would also like to find someone who could help assist me and my PA with my business, whether this involves packaging merchandise, grabbing fresh croissants for client meetings, going to the post office or helping move or deliver paintings. No day with me would ever be the same, I have a studio in Earlsfield where I paint so would be based there most days when I’m not exhibiting at fairs or shows. I really need more help so I can spend more time painting and completing commissions. I want someone with a happy positive mindset who can do nice things with my son like taking him to classes, reading with him, helping him with his homework and ultimately enabling me to spend more quality time with him when I finish work in the evenings. He is in a mainstream school but in a specialist ASD unit. He loves drawing, swimming and going on escalators. He has a cheeky sense of humour and loves watching Peppa Pig, Paddington and escalator videos on YouTube. There would be international travel involved, especially in the school holidays.
