Your children deserve the best
Why hire a Nanny?
A nanny is a professional childcare provider who cares for babies and children up to around eight years old in the family home, taking care of nursery duties, feeding, hygiene, routines and play. Great British Nannies places live-in, live-out and rota nannies with families in London, across the UK and internationally.
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.
