Hannah was fantastic with our three young kids. Our youngest two often get quite upset when a babysitter arrives but Hannah very quickly put them at ease and made it very easy for us to get out and enjoy our evening. Will be back in touch whenever we're back in Melbourne.

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.
