Family of five (3 children 14, 11, 7yrs) no pets.

A cleaner is also employed once per week.
Cooking is good family level. All ingredients are fresh, you will need to prepare vegetables, fruit juices, soups, salads, fresh sauces for pasta and keep prepared dishes for reheating in the fridge.

The children are mostly independent, but you will need to assist with local school runs and collection once per day, and occasionally oversee the children until the parents return, but more supervision that actual childcare. Running errands, dealing with contractors, arranging deliveries and repairs are all part of the role.

Both principals work full time and lead busy professional lives. They occasionally may ask you to extend your hours, but always with plenty of notice. The family are away every July & August during which time you can adapt your working hours or take holiday.
