KEY CHILDCARE ROLES DEFINED

The Professional Nanny

The Nanny remains the cornerstone of exceptional, everyday care. Fully invested in your child’s developmental journey, this professional is a dedicated presence, often managing daily schedules, educational play, and activities that foster robust mental, physical, and emotional growth. Their responsibilities encompass all child-related duties, from preparing nutritious meals and organising enriching outings to ensuring a safe, consistent, and stimulating environment at all times.

The Rota Nanny: Seamless, Discrete Support

For families with demanding international schedules or multiple residences, the Rota Nanny provides an unparalleled level of
consistent, professional support.

Working on a pre-agreed rotational schedule (e.g., two weeks on, two weeks off), the Rota Nanny ensures a seamless transition of care, offering 24/7 coverage while on duty. This system provides your children with stable, high-quality care year-round, regardless of parental travel or obligations. This role is renowned for discretion and deep professional experience, ideal for complex, fast-paced lifestyles.

Live-In & Live-Out Professionals

The choice between a Live-In or Live-Out professional depends entirely on your home environment and family preference.
  • Live-In Nanny:

    Resides within your family home, often to support busy schedules or provide round-the-clock availability while on duty
    (as with a Rota structure). We ensure they are provided with private, comfortable accommodation that respects their need
    for personal space.

  • Live-Out Nanny: Commutes to your residence daily, returning home at the end of their shift. This is often preferred by families seeking a clear separation between family life and professional service hours.

The Nanny-Governess: Education Meets Care

This role expertly blends comprehensive childcare with a dedicated focus on academics and intellectual development. A Nanny-Governess possesses a strong educational background and implements bespoke learning elements to support your children’s success in academic matters. They cover all traditional nanny duties while actively fostering critical thinking, discipline, and scholarly confidence.

The Maternity Nanny: Post-Natal Excellence

Often taking over from a Maternity Nurse, the Maternity Nanny is extensively trained to support the continued establishment of post-natal routines. They are a valuable partner in introducing new milestones, such as successful weaning, sleep coaching, and age- appropriate developmental activities for infants and young babies.
