Nannies

Want to work as a Nanny in the UK? If you have a recognized Nanny qualification or experience of looking after children we can help you to find a suitable family to work for. Fill in the nannies application form and we will contact you shortly to discuss your options. This service is FREE to you!

Nannies who have a recognised qualification are expected to take full charge of the children in their care. This may include their food preparation, washing and ironing their clothes and clearing up after them. Parent helpers are not qualified and their duties may include more general housework in addition to helping with the children. Individual job descriptions vary and writing Contracts helps clarify expectations on both sides. Both nannies and parent helpers will be expected to entertain their charges - families appreciate someone who will keep the children physically active and creatively stimulated.

After we have found you a position we can assist you with organising your visa and help you set up a bank account if you want. We will also organise a Police Check - essential for working with children in the UK. This takes a couple of months to organise, so even if you aren't planning to leave right away it's a good idea to get the ball rolling and start the paperwork.

We make every possible effort to match you with the right family, assessing their needs as well as your own requirements. We assist with the drafting of Contracts which although not legally binding are a great place to start.

We will ensure you are met at the airport and will provide you with a welcome package including travel guides, maps and a mobile phone. We have an office in the UK and will provide ongoing support and advice.

We can also introduce you to other nannies in your area if you like. You're there to have fun at work and play!
