This story dates from the immediate post WWII period I believe though this edition is 1970. The heroine has just left the Wrens and the hero, Stephen, still has a posting and recently lost a mate who saved his life in a skirmish of some kind.
The hero is now guardian to his mate's children and is getting grief from his selfish older sister and equally selfish fiancée. Judith worked for him while serving and when he comes across her at a loose end she takes on the job as nanny for the children until things are sorted.
Of course she loves the children and despite all her efforts, she has feelings for the hero as well.
Naturally it all sorts itself out with some angst to a nice HEA.
