What does a professional nanny service include?

A professional nanny service doesn’t have to cost you a fortune. Suggest your rate and find a nanny near you. Our platform lets you check ratings and reviews so you find someone you can trust. Here are some tasks your nanny can help with:

Childcare

Your nanny’s main role is to take care of your children, ensure their safety, and tend to their basic needs. Childcare tasks include feeding, bathing, changing nappies, and putting a child to bed. To prepare for all situations, many nannies go through First Aid and CPR training. Also, an experienced nanny will know whether to call the parents or dial 000 in case of an emergency.

Transport

Know your kid is in capable hands when going to a specific location. A reliable nanny can take your kids to school and collect them later in the day. What’s more, your nanny can go with your child to after-school activities. These activities include swimming lessons, music lessons, and playdates. Hire a nanny near you via Airtasker to find someone who knows their way around your community.

Meal prep

No time to cook or do grocery shopping? No worries. A nanny can prepare healthy meals, snacks, and packed lunches for your child. If you need a nanny to help with groceries and other tasks, mention this need on your Airtasker listing. Also, specify your child's food preferences, allergies, or special nutritional needs. This detail helps your nanny prepare as needed.

Development

A nanny can help develop a child’s learning and everyday skills. You can request a nanny who has studied child development. Some nannies have trained to work with a specific age group. And other nannies can offer basic tutoring.

Light housework

Nannies can also help out with light housework. These chores include packing away toys, folding clothes, and cleaning the house. What’s more, a nanny can disinfect toys, clean play areas, sterilise bottles, and other areas. A nanny’s usual roles relate to caring for children and cleaning up the mess they make.

Albion Park Rail NSW 2527, Australia

Hello! We Have a 9yr girl and 6yr boy who need a nanny for a couple days/week. Wed/thurs/or a Friday. 1-2days. Ideally we’re after school drop off and pick up from Jamberoo on these days as we both work and the buses don’t go there. Then care after school for a few hours…. Exact $$ to be discussed We’re flexible, and looking for a long term partnership (all the nanny apps are not helpful). So basically the details could be negotiated. Up to you how you see it working. If you are keen on extra $ we could discuss helping around the house with stuff. Must be warm and caring, and interested in getting to know them and our family. In return we’d be keen to get to know you and always treat you with respect, warmth and generosity. Must have solid experience with kids, own car and licence.
