Please note that we also offer standard nannies at our nanny agency London.
The popularity of hiring Rota Nannies
This fairly new approach to childcare has become more and more popular with HNW families because it provides a smart way to gain flexible, quality childcare around the clock or whatever hours you need help. Whilst of course maintaining exclusivity within a carefully chosen group of nannies.
Just think of what it would be like to have a private, experienced nanny who works for you 24/7.
Many Rota nannies work on Super Yachts as Super Yacht Nannies, or for Royal families and other HNW families and VIPs.
So what is a Rota Nanny?
The Rota nanny will make sure your children are provided with consistent and reliable care.
Rota nannies work 24/7 when on duty. Obviously on a Rota system. For example: 2 weeks on/ 2 weeks off. Typically the rota nanny works 24/7 but could also have a fixed schedule, such as 6am til 2pm or other.
For example, Nanny no 1 works for you for 2 weeks on and then has 2 weeks off. Nanny no 2 covers when Nanny no 1 is off. The rotation could be over several weeks on a temp basis or on a permanent basis.
Examples of Rota Nanny Positions
First of all, all Rota nannies offer personalized attention and support based on the child’s needs, with focus on consistency and nurturing.
- The Live out Rota Nanny works on a rotating schedule during fixed schedule hours

- The Traveling Rota Nanny will accompany you during travel, providing qulity care and support while managing routines wherever you go.
Duties of The Rota Nanny
