Job Description

A European family newly settled in Dubai is looking for a highly experienced, energetic, and exceptionally well-organised Rota Nanny to support the daily care and development of their two boys, aged 9 and 11. This is a live-in rota role, alternating with another nanny, and requires excellent teamwork to ensure smooth transitions between shifts and consistent care.

The family maintains a very active lifestyle with frequent international travel and a schedule that can change quickly. They are seeking someone calm, adaptable, and proactive—someone who can anticipate needs, stay composed under pressure, and bring a positive, structured approach to both childcare and household organisation.

  • Prepare and organise wardrobes, uniforms, sports kits, travel bags, and daily essentials.
  • Handle personal shopping for the boys, including clothing orders, gifts, and activity supplies.
  • Maintain a safe, positive, and organised environment.
  • Respond calmly to last-minute changes and evolving plans.
  • Ensure detailed handovers and smooth collaboration with the second nanny and full household team.

Housekeeping & Home Management

  • Supervise and lead housekeeping tasks within the home.
  • Ensure all rooms and common areas remain immaculate and beautifully presented.
  • Oversee laundry, ironing, wardrobe organisation, and the care of fine fabrics.
  • Handle delicate materials and luxury surfaces using appropriate techniques.
  • Create and manage cleaning schedules, including deep-clean routines.
  • Work closely with other household staff to maintain seamless daily operations.
  • Track inventories of cleaning products, household supplies, and linens.
  • Ensure guest rooms and family living areas are always ready and well-maintained.
  • Report maintenance needs promptly.
  • Coordinate with the drivers to ensure transport needs are fully prepared.

  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to multitask and lead when needed.
