Katie Price is reportedly advertising for a live-in nanny/housekeeper to start right away at her West Sussex home.

An ad placed online calls for 'a couple' to assume the role, rather than a single person.

While Katie, 40, is not named specifically, The Sun reports that the ad is her's - with the location, amount of children and request for 'experience with special needs' fitting the bill for the Price household.

Katie - who is mother to Harvey, 16, Junior, 13, Princess, 11, Jett, five, and Bunny, four - has been dangerously close to bankruptcy over the past 18 months; yet the ad offers £800-£1000 per week to the successful applicant.

It is not clear whether that is per person or in total for the couple.

Speculation suggests Katie is looking to hire a couple to work together given the bad luck she has had with past live-in employees; namely Lauryn Cook and  Nikki Brown, both of whom were single nannies and are alleged to have had affairs with Katie's now-estranged third husband Kieran Hayler.

The ad asks that the applicants boast two years experience, speak English, can work Monday-Friday 7AM-7PM and can drive. Katie is currently subject to a three month driving ban, for being drunk in charge of her vehicle.

It also states: 'The family are looking for someone who ideally has experience with special needs but this is not essential to the role. The family would like someone who can start as soon as possible.'

Harvey - her eldest child, whom she shares with estranged footballer ex Dwight York - is partially blind, suffers from autism and has Prader-Willi syndrome.

The former-glamour model recently denied that he has been put into full-time care - again, fueling reports that this ad was placed by her, with a need for live-in help.

The ad also reads: 'A family in Worthing is looking for a live-in Nanny/Housekeeper couple to help with their five children who are aged between 4 and 18 years old. The Nanny/Housekeeper will be provided with a separate annexe. The family are looking for someone who is a confident driver.'

It lists duties such as: 'Getting the children up and ready in the morning, school runs, helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, reading stories, playing games, taking them to parks and playgrounds, arts and crafts, helping with the evening routine.'

It goes on to say: 'The Nanny/Housekeeper will also be responsible for: laundry, ironing, hoovering and mopping floors, cleaning kitchens and bathrooms, dusting, caring for antiques, tidying bedrooms and changing bed linen, running errands.'

On Wednesday, Katie denied hurtful reports claiming her son Harvey, who turns 17 next month, has been moved to
