Send in your CV and cover letter via email or use the form above. We will contact you to let you know when we are available to interview you. We personally interview all our nannies, taking the time to get to know you individually. This means that we can match you with the right family – ensuring that you are happy and settled in a job you love.
Nannies on our service must be over 17 years of age, have at least 1 year of professional childcare experience, in addition to being vetted by police services and holding a Child First Aid qualification. We recommend that nannies looking to pursue a long term career in early childhood study at Level 4 ECE with an accredited provider.
You will be visited by our Visiting Teacher at least once per month to guide and support your career as a nanny or educator. We also run a fortnightly playgroup and monthly events for you and your children to attend. Your Visiting Teacher is available to call at any time during the work week.

In order to apply for jobs where families are joining Little Robins Programme, you must have an EC qualification of Level 4 or above.
If you are unqualified we can help and support you to complete your ECE level 4 certificate.
If you have no ECE qualification but have childcare experience, you can still register with us to apply for jobs where families are not joining our Little Robins Programme.
Homebased childcare is where you will provide childcare for children in your own home. Parents will generally drop their children off to your home for the day and you are responsible for providing fun and stimulating activities, events out of the home and looking after their health and well-being.
Parents often chose this option as it is a much lower ratio than a childcare centre.
