Key Benefits of Being a Carer with The Nanny Company
Financial Resources
If you already care for someone elses children, why not receive the financial rewards of joining our service. Families can access non income tested funding through our service, along with ECE hours for 3 & 4 year olds and Work and Income NZ Subsidies. This usually means families can afford to pay you more for caring for their children.
Playgroups
We offer free playgroups at places of interest to young children. We pay all admission fees. Playgroups are a great chance to meet other carers/nannies and for the children to socialise with others. Some examples of playgroups are; pony riding, miniature train rides, coffee mornings etc.
Newsletters
Our bi-monthly newsletter is sent to you directly and families. The newsletter keeps you up-to-date with the happenings at The Nanny Company. Our playgroups for the next two months are published, as is information on workshops and news of interest to people working with young children.
Programme Manager Support
A Programme Manager visits you and the children once a month. Programme Managers support you, offer guidance with the children and build a strong relationship with you. All our programme managers have children of their own and have worked in early childhood for a number of years.
They all hold a Diploma of Early Childhood Education or higher qualification.
Professional Development
You will be required to undertake first aid training at our expense (within two months of starting with your family, we ask that you give your time freely to attend this training). In addition each year we give carers access to a generous professional development budget. We regularly send out course information to all our carers and offer regular child focused workshops held in the evenings.
Social Events
We run social events paid for by the company, on a regular basis. These events are always fun, and a great chance to meet the team on an informal basis.
Celebrating our team!
We value our team and acknowledge the fantastic work you do. We acknowledge your birthday with flowers, and always buy each carer/nanny a Christmas present. We care about the people and believe if we nurture you, you in turn will nurture the children.
