We are always seeking experienced people who adore young children to work with our service. We welcome 'granny nannies' and younger nannies to work alongside our families. You need to have experience with children under five years of age, and the ability to run a home environment.
If you have emotional maturity and knowledge of child development we'd love to hear from you.
Once you are placed with a family a programme manager visits each nanny every month. We provide a Learning Journal which will be filled with information about each child's learning and development. The company provides free fortnightly playgroups with access to places of educational value.
Nannies can access professional development opportunities and we value our team by acknowledging the fantastic work nannies do (we celebrate your birthday with flowers, and always give you a gift at Christmas)!
So whether you are seeking your first perfect nanny position, or your next career move we can help.
