Nannies
What is a Nanny?
A nanny is a professional childcare specialist. They will have a substantial amount of childcare experience working with private families. Nannies may also be certified in newborn care, CPR & first aid, and may have taken classes or courses related to childhood care.
Career nannies may hold a degree in education or psychology. In England, many qualified nannies and governesses will hold a NNEB certificate which involves training on all forms of childcare from infant to special needs and places an emphasis on fieldwork. The Norland Nanny school also stands as a gold standard of nanny training in the UK. Learn more about Norland Nannies.

What Type of Nanny Do You Need?
Understanding each family’s specific needs are necessary in order to match the perfect nanny. Would a nanny specializing in education and tutoring be ideal? Does the family travel extensively? Would a high-energy nanny that can keep up with busy schedules be best? Or would your children thrive with a calm, quiet presence? Do you employ other staff in your home and need a team player, or a nanny that works best autonomously and knows what to do with little direction?
