MOTHERS HELP

NELFANANNYAGENCY

A Mother's Help's duties are similar to those of a nanny.

We do not recommend full time sole charge of babies and very young children unless the mother's help can demonstrate a considerable amount of relevant experience backed up by good references from previous employers.

Mother's Helps, if in sole charge of young children, would expect their duties to remain child-related in the same way as a nanny's, such as tidying and cleaning up after the children. Mother's Helps should never be expected to do housework when in sole charge of babies and preschool children.

Where the mother is at home on a fulltime or part time basis or children are at school for most of the day, some light housework duties may be agreed, provided this is clearly stated in the Mother's Help's contract before employment has commenced.

A mother's help can work five full working days or a maximum of 40-50 hours per week provided the hours are clearly stated in the contract of work & and the pay is adjusted accordingly.

The charge for this will be from GBP 8:00 per hour.
