After school nannies are a flexible alternative to having an au pair. Our nannies work in your home but live locally, so you don’t need to provide accommodation like with a traditional au pair. Think of it like a ‘live-out’ au pair! You can hire a vetted, trained part-time nanny from as little as 3 hours a week.
Covering school or nursery pick-ups, homework, den making, arts and crafts and dinner. Your children get a chance to unwind at home and receive invaluable one-on-one attention. The kind that allows kids to thrive.
All of our nannies speak fluent English but many can speak a second language or have lived abroad too. You can have all the benefits of an au pair, without having to commit to a round the clock arrangement.
All-in pricing from £16.50 an hour in London and the home counties, and from £15.50 an hour in the rest of the UK. Per family, not per child.

We do simple all-in pricing from £16.50 an hour in London and the home counties, and from £15.50 an hour in the rest of the UK.
You pay per family, not per child — so you can add siblings at no extra cost. For families with 2 or more kids, a part-time live-out au-pair (aka nanny) can work out much cheaper than after school clubs or a childminder.
The rates on our nanny profiles include tax, admin fees and any other extras.
We make sure your nanny’s employment is all above board with none of the admin hassle on you. You pay a one-off £139 employer setup fee towards this.
Our app allows you to seamlessly approve shifts and expenses.
Our upfront training ensures your nanny knows what’s expected of them and how best to support busy working families.
Our experienced Support Team is always there to help your nanny. We provide heaps of activity and recipe ideas, and offer ongoing childcare training – in particular around supporting your child’s emotional wellbeing.
Being a working parent is one big juggling act – it often feels like the wheels are going to fall off the bus any minute. Getting a nanny brings the calm and equilibrium your whole family craves.
You can give your job 100% until the very end of the working day; knowing your children are safely collected, their homework is done, they’ve relaxed in the sanctuary of their own home (minus the screen time) and had a home cooked meal.
When you take over, the to-do list is done. Children have decompressed with a bit of distance from school. Now it’s simply quality time, a chance to connect and then tuck them off to dreamland.
Koru Kids families tell us time and time again that their nanny is a priceless mental health investment for the whole family. Kids are happier and calmer. And parents, having the space to breathe can bring their best selves to parenting.
Our hourly rates include everything: taxes, pension, insurance, pay rises for your nanny, our service fee for handling all your admin, and more.
For those looking for a fun, active, and super smart after school hero for your kids. These nannies are often university students.

We include all the costs associated with hiring a nanny in the hourly rate you see on the platform. This is the nanny’s pay, taxes, your employer taxes and pension. We also include our service fee in the hourly rate so there isn’t a big upfront cost like with other agencies.
The first time you hire a nanny with us there is also a £139 set-up fee.
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. 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.
