Flexible | Weekday Afternoons | Starting September | Paid Training Provided
£14.50–£17+ per hour depending on experience + mileage

Are you looking for rewarding, part-time work that fits around your studies, freelance work, or family life? Do you love working with children and want to be a valued part of a family’s day-to-day life? We’re looking for kind, reliable, and enthusiastic people to join our team of after-school nannies in Harpenden and Wheathampstead.

What the role involves:

• Collecting children from school and caring for them in their family home

• Creating a warm, fun, and engaging environment after school

• Helping with snacks, homework, and getting children to any after-school activities (mileage paid)

• Working regularly with the same family so you really get to know the children

Who this would suit:

We welcome applications from a variety of people, including:

• University students (e.g. from University of Bedfordshire or Hertfordshire) – especially if you’ve babysat, worked in holiday camps, or just enjoy being with children

• Teaching assistants or those with school-based experience looking for extra income

• Local mums or carers with older children, looking to re-enter work or top up income

• Freelancers, creatives or part-time workers wanting something meaningful and fun during the week

• Anyone responsible and nurturing who enjoys being with children – we’ll give you full training

 Schedule:

• Regular after-school hours (e.g. 3pm–6pm) on weekdays

• Optional extra hours in school holidays, some weekends, or evenings by mutual agreement

 Pay:

• From £14.50 per hour for students/newer candidates with informal experience

• £16–£17+ per hour for candidates with more childcare experience (e.g. TAs, mums, etc.)

• Plus mileage (for short drives from school to home, and during sessions)

Locations:

• Families based in Harpenden and Wheathampstead

• Candidates welcome from Luton, St Albans, surrounding villages – as long as you’re happy to drive to families in these areas

 Why join us?

• Work with lovely families and funny, joyful children

• Be trained and supported – no formal qualifications needed

• Be a valued part of a family’s routine – not just a babysitter

• A great way to earn more than standard part-time roles, while doing something rewarding

 Start Date:

September 2025 – we’re recruiting now so there’s time for settling in and training beforehand.
