Are you a qualified nanny who has experience and awareness of the differences between different cultures and work practices?
We are searching for Nanny, Governess, Teacher/Tutor, and Maternity Nurse/Maternity Nanny candidates for overseas, international, and UK placements who have already proven and demonstrated their childcare abilities and confidence in a childcare setting.
We are on the lookout for bilingual or trilingual qualified nannies, British and European nannies, Western English-speaking nannies, mannies, or European Union Nannies.
Exceptional Nannies are in great demand in the UK, Europe, the Middle East, and around the world, as many dynamic, growing, VIP, and high-profile families are not just looking for a child carer to look after their children.
They are also often looking to introduce and expose them to people from other countries and cultures or who speak another language. Some specifically want a fluent English speaker or other global language.
Working as an overseas Nanny abroad can be a very fulfilling and growth-building experience, opening you up to a new world of thinking and opportunity.
Have you ever considered working in another country?
Apart from being confident in yourself and your professionalism, you may have become something of a diplomat, understanding, willing to learn how to approach working in different cultures. If you think that this could be you, here are some benefits for you to think about:
- Your travel is paid: Airline plane tickets can be expensive! Working overseas means your employer will usually cover flights from your home country and provide accommodation or an allowance for somewhere to live while working for the family. This means your overheads and costs can be lower than they are at home.
- You can meet new friends: In your free time, you can explore your new surroundings in the city you live in. Relocating for work opens up nearby places, making weekend getaways possible. Nanny networks or clubs often meet regularly in most towns and cities where you can make new friends. Joining a Facebook group like Niche Nannies Facebook Group can help you connect with other nannies in your new location.
- Increase your horizons by experiencing a new culture: Working abroad allows you to experience a different culture, try traditional foods, listen to local music, and enjoy a new way of life. Even in English-speaking countries, you'll notice differences that will enrich your life.
- You can learn a new language: Immersing yourself in a new country makes it easier to learn a new language. There are more opportunities to practice with native speakers, and you can develop language skills that might be difficult to acquire at home.
- The money is often much better: Working abroad often means earning more money. Salaries abroad are generally higher, and living expenses are often lower, especially in places like the Middle East and Russia. You could easily earn double what you would in the UK, with significantly reduced expenses.
We will only select nanny, governess, or maternity nurse candidates who are found to be honest, reliable, experienced, caring nannies, and other childcare staff. All nannies are professionally screened, including identity verification and stringent reference checks. All nannies are evaluated by one of our consultants whose main focus is on putting your family first.
General Overseas Advice:
- Always be honest with us and any potential employers regarding your level of fluency in languages when applying for placements.
- We also advise that you have at least 2 years left on your passport, as overseas placements will often involve traveling with the family to other international destinations.
- Do some research before you go, find out information about your new work location.
