LONDON, OVERSEAS including USA  & INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL

Experienced Live-in Nannies Wanted | February 2026 Starts | Competitive Salaries

We are delighted to be recruiting experienced, trained Live-in Nannies for a range of lovely private family roles based in London, Europe, and the USA, with regular international travel.

These are exciting opportunities for confident, caring nannies who genuinely love working with children and want to build long-term, meaningful relationships within private households.

Each family is slightly different — caring for children from babies through to teenagers — but all are looking for nannies who bring warmth, professionalism, structure, and flexibility to their role.

The Role

You’ll play an important part in supporting children’s emotional, social, and personal development, while helping to maintain routines, boundaries, and a calm, positive environment — both at home and while travelling.

Key responsibilities include:

Providing attentive care, supervision, and age-appropriate guidance

Encouraging confidence, independence, and everyday life skills

Planning and leading fun, engaging activities such as sports, outdoor play, fitness, and cultural outings

Supporting children through different developmental stages

Travelling internationally with the family, keeping routines consistent and children happy and settled

The Ideal Candidate

We’re looking for nannies who are confident, organised, and experienced, with a genuine passion for childcare.

Essential criteria:

UK, EU, or US passport (for US)  and confidence travelling internationally

UK driving licence and confidence driving in London

Childcare training (e.g. BTEC, degree-educated, or equivalent; PGCE or QTS welcome)

Minimum 5+ years’ professional experience in private childcare, education, coaching, or youth work

Experience working with children aged 6 months – 16 years

Enhanced DBS and excellent references

Personal qualities:

Calm, emotionally intelligent, and naturally confident with children

Active, sporty, and happy spending time outdoors

Well-presented, discreet, and adaptable within private households

Comfortable working collaboratively with parents and household staff

Pet-friendly (many of our families have dogs)

What’s on Offer

Long-term, stable positions with private families

Competitive salaries, dependent on experience

Fantastic opportunities for international travel
