Nanny
Your children deserve the best
Why hire a Nanny?
A Nanny is responsible for your child’s wellbeing whilst they are on duty. Your Nanny will plan and organise daily and/or weekly activities both in and out of the home, to support your child’s learning and development. Your Nanny will contribute to your child’s intellectual, physical and emotional development, whilst also providing them with the opportunity to quickly learn a second language, should this be a requirement.
Nannies offer sole charge or proxy parenting as well as working alongside parents, depending on your preferences. A Nanny is often responsible for all nursery duties, cooking, and cleaning the rooms of the children they care for. However, they do not usually partake in any other housekeeping duties. Nannies will organise playdates and accompany your child to any extra-curricular activities as well as assist with homework supervision and reading. Nannies typically work with children from birth up to 8 years.

Educating Parents about children development
Nannies are knowledgeable in the area of child’s development. Often they can educated and guide parents in this area.
Working Hours of a Nanny
There are no set working hours for a nanny as each family tends to have a schedule that is more appropriate to their needs depending on their working hours and personal life. Nannies generally work between 40-50 hours per week over a period of 5-6 days. However, for some families and nannies a rota schedule is more preferable, whereby the nanny will work for a certain period of time on and then a certain period of time off. This is more common overseas whereby families have a native English speaking nanny for two weeks and a native tongue nanny for two weeks so that the child’s language development is consistent in both languages.
