I am a single parent father with a nine year old son called Adam. I work in central London most times and from home sometimes.

My Mother and Adam's Grandmother lives with us six months of the year. Adam is a weekly boarder at a nearby boarding school and holidays are shared between his mother who has her own home and myself.

We are a relaxed and happy family and we would welcome a person of similar character who we would support and encourage in their own requirements and interests as a member of the household.

There would be plenty of flexible free time which would be agreed in advance on a term to term basis to accommodate for those times that the Adam is away from home or at his mums. Even the school holidays would offer a good amount of free time as Adam spends half of the time with his mother.

I am seeking a person with a good level of maturity when relating with children.

Ideally I am looking for a person with experience of being around or looking after children.

I would like someone who fills any of the following criteria; has either grown up with younger siblings/relatives, worked with children or is studying/ training to work with children.

There is regular home help for housekeeping and the new family member would also be expected to help with light housework such as ironing, Making beds, vacuuming and laundry.

They should also be able to put together basic food for children when necessary and participate in any child focussed activities.

A driving licence would be an advantage although not a necessity.
