Information for Clients - Types of Childcare

A daily nanny qualified or experienced comes to your home each day, either full time or part time. Full time nannies usually work around 10 hours per day depending on circumstances. Their main work will consist of nursery duties, if any light housework is required this must be arranged at interview (most qualified nanny's will only do nursery duties). Baby-sitting is usually paid extra unless agreed by prior arrangement. If the nanny will be using her own car for work, a mileage allowance is normally agreed between both parties.

A live in nanny can work between 10 and 12 hours per day, should more hours be required this must be discussed and agreed at interview. Baby-sitting can be included within the salary, normally 1 weekday evening, extra evenings should be agreed at interview. Accommodation provided is generally own bedroom and bathroom and the cost of all food and bills (excluding telephone). Majority of nannies get full use of a car on and off duty.
