Advantages of nannies

Live-in childcare

Nannies work in a family’s home, caring for their child or children. Some nannies live with the family, others come to work daily and others work for two or more families.

 

Because your child is cared for at home, they have their own toys, books and games close at hand. You can also keep lots of control over your child’s routine, diet, activities and play environment.

 

Nannies can also babysit in the evening and look after your child while you’re away – or even come away with you to provide childcare on holiday.

 

Disabled children

Nannies, like childminders, can offer support for parents with disabled children. Caring for your child on a one-to-one basis, they can provide tailored care, specific to the child’s needs. Nannies can also look after your children when they’re poorly.
