Looking for Mother's Help / Home Cook – Brixton / Herne Hill, London
Start Date: 31st August 2026 (or early September for the right person)
We're looking for a warm, organised and proactive Mother's Help to become a valued part of our family.
We're a relaxed family with a 22-month-old toddler, a 6-week-old baby, and a very friendly cat. Mum is at home, so this is a shared-care role combining childcare with helping keep our home running smoothly.
25–40 hours per week – we're flexible and happy to consider part-time or full-time for the right person.
This role would suit someone who genuinely enjoys both children and home life. We love cooking from scratch, spending time outdoors and creating a calm, organised home, and we're looking for someone who shares those values.
The role includes:
- Shared-care childcare alongside Mum
- Sole care of one or both children at times, including trips out
- Cooking fresh, healthy family meals from scratch
- Keeping the kitchen clean and organised
- Laundry and household organisation
- Grocery shopping, errands and general household support
We already have a regular cleaner, so this is not a cleaning job. We're looking for someone who takes pride in creating a calm, well-run home and enjoys noticing what needs doing without being asked.
We're hoping to find someone who is:
- Warm, kind and reliable
- Confident with babies and toddlers
- A great home cook who enjoys cooking from scratch
- Organised, proactive and happy to muck in wherever needed
- Looking for a long-term position where they can truly become part of the family
Dad travels regularly for work, so having another dependable pair of hands makes a huge difference to us.
If this sounds like you, or someone you know, we'd love to hear from you. Please send me an email with a little about yourself, your experience, availability and your CV.
Pay: £18.00-£21.00 per hour
Work Location: In person
