We’ve been told by families time and again that nannies who drive make everyday life easier by bringing much-needed flexibility, from before-school drop-offs to after-school playdates.
For you, it simply means more opportunities and extra income for a skill you already have.
Your pay includes your hourly wage plus 12.05% for holiday pay.
You’ll log your shifts in our app. The family you work for will approve them. You’ll be paid on the 7th of the month.
You’ve got experience looking after children e.g. babysitting or volunteering but don’t yet have a year of continuous work.
You’ve worked with children for 1+ years in a continuous role such as volunteering, a nanny or in a nursery.
Alternatively, you’re a parent and have raised your own family.
You’ve worked for 2+ years in a professional childcare role such as a teacher, teaching assistant, nursery worker, nanny or childminder.
You’ve worked for 3+ years as a professional nanny.
You can set your own rate based on your experience and specialities.

3.15pm: You arrive at the family’s house and it’s time for a healthy snack and some downtime before you start homework.
3.30pm: You help with reading, encourage them when they get stuck – Koru Kids sent you some training on ‘growth mindset’ and it helps the children feel positive when things are hard.
4pm: The children are busy with some arts and crafts as you make a quick dinner of pasta with a hidden vegetable sauce you found in the Koru Kids cookbook.
5pm: After dinner you stack the dishwasher and sit with the kids while they finish their crafts and lego masterpieces.
6pm: The parents return and you give them a run-down of the afternoon. They are so grateful to return to happy children and know homework and dinner is taken care of.

It also covers our ongoing support to make sure you are supported and given the right training for your role.
Yes – most nannies only work for one family.
No – you don’t need any formal qualifications or experience to become a nanny. However, you need to have taken care of children before such as babysitting, volunteering or at a holiday camp.
Most families are looking for a nanny to help them for the school year during term-time. We ask that you can commit to a minimum of 3 months as families sometimes are looking for shorter-term roles.
You’ll also be able to do a trial shift with the family before you accept the job.
Nannies typically only look after one families children (or in a nanny share two families children). Nannies work in the children’s home whereas childminders work in their own home looking after children from different families. You can find more information on childminding here.
