Nannies

Being a nanny is one of the most rewarding and worthwhile jobs you can do. If you love being with children, are dedicated to keeping them safe and happy, and are interested in educating and stimulating them to prepare for later life then becoming a nanny could be the ideal career for you.

Working in childcare

Nannies are childcare professionals who work at the home of one family at a time, and are employed by a parent rather than being self-employed. Nannies often have sole charge of a family's children, and can also work for two families at once as part of a nanny-share arrangement.
