A fully comprehensive service.
We handle everything in one place so that you don’t end up with a patchwork of agencies to manage different things.
Plus, Koru Kids will continue to support your nanny with training, our AI activity planner and 1:1 coaching available.
We don’t believe in big chunky upfront fees that put all the risk on families.
Instead we charge a set-up fee of £139 (to cover setting you up as an employer for the first time) and include a small service fee in your nannies hourly rate.
By paying a smaller amount to Koru Kids over time our incentives are aligned – we don’t make a penny (in fact we lose quite a bit) if your nanny doesn’t stay with you for the long run.
Remember, the gross wage of a nanny isn’t the only cost.
Based on a nanny on an average gross wage for 15 hours a week you can expect to pay:
We know families need flexible childcare but we believe nannies deserve proper employment and income security.
We don’t allow zero hours contracts and your nanny will have a minimum of 9 per week hours in their contract, during term-time, which you’ll pay even if you cancel their shift.
We do have contracts as little as 3 hours a week but there is an additional £1 per hour added to the hourly rate.
Yes! Our nannies can look after children from two families at the same time. It’s a brilliant option if you’d like your children to benefit from a play mate while still getting all the benefits of a nanny. It starts from £10 per hour, per family and the nanny gets a pay rise too.
Our nannies cost from £16.50 per hour in London and the home counties or £15.50 per hour in the rest of the UK, per family, depending on your nanny’s childcare experience and the number of hours of care you need. Our service fee is included in your hourly rate.
You’ll pay a one-off £139 set up fee when you start working with your first nanny.
Some can, but the lots can’t. If your nanny can drive it will be marked on their profile.
All of our nannies speak fluent English. For most, it’s their first language, but many speak other languages as well. Our nannies come from a range of backgrounds, so just let us know on the registration form if you have any language requirements and we’ll do our best to send you nannies who speak that language. If it’s a bonus rather than a deal breaker, the number of potential nannies we can show you really increases.
We have a range of nannies if all experiences. Many of our nannies looking for after school shifts only have experience with older children but many others are willing to work longer hours and have experience with babies and younger children.
Top Tier nannies have been carefully vetted for their experience, so many will have specialist baby & toddler experience.
Look out for a run down of their experience on each profile.
Yes! We are currently expanding to other parts of the UK. When you register with us we’ll instantly tell you if we have nannies available in your area.
You may be able to pay using childcare vouchers or tax-free childcare, provided your nanny is Ofsted registered. Please note, the vast majority of nannies will not be registered with Ofsted due to the part-time nature of the role. The cost and time to register usually outweighs the savings parents could make by using childcare vouchers or tax-free childcare.
Nannies will look after your children in your home vs. a childminder who works in their home.
Nannies typically work for one family or two if it’s a nanny share. A childminder will look after children from multiple families.
