This is a varied long-term position combining high-standard housekeeping, light property oversight, and infant care. The family uses the property for approximately 100 days each year, mainly between April and October, so the schedule and nature of the work change depending on whether the family is in residence.
When the family is away, the focus is on maintaining the property to an exceptional standard and ensuring everything is ready for their return. During periods of residence, the role becomes a balanced combination of housekeeping and childcare.

During the family’s periods away from the property, the Housekeeper will also provide basic oversight of the estate.
Responsibilities include:
When the family is in residence, approximately half of the working time will be dedicated to childcare.
Responsibilities will include:
The annual schedule is designed around the family’s time at the property.
When the Family Is Away – Approximately 265 Days Per Year
The role is approximately 3 days per week / 20 hours per week.
During these periods, duties focus on:
When the Family Is in Residence – Approximately 100 Days Per Year
The schedule increases to 5 days per week, 8 hours per day / 40 hours per week.
Working time is expected to be divided approximately 50% housekeeping and 50% infant care, depending on the family’s daily requirements.
