A London-Based Nanny & Maternity Nurse Agency, Working with Families Across the UK and Internationally
Welcome to The Nanny & Maternity Agency, where families come to get it right from the start.
â
Based in London and working with clients across the UK and internationally, we specialise in placing exceptional nannies and maternity professionals into homes where experience, discretion and the right fit truly matter.
â
Finding someone to welcome into your home, and trust with your child, is not something to leave to chance. It requires experience, instinct and a clear understanding of what works in practice, not just on paper.
â
That’s where we come in.
â
Every search is handled personally. We take the time to understand how your household runs, what matters to you, and what will genuinely work day to day. From there, we present a carefully selected shortlist of candidates who have been thoroughly vetted and chosen not only for their experience, but for their ability to integrate seamlessly into your home.
Our role doesn’t end once a placement is made. We remain closely involved, offering ongoing support and guidance to ensure everything continues to run smoothly - for both you and your nanny.
â
Every placement is supported by a 12-month replacement guarantee, because getting it right should never feel like a risk, along with clear and transparent placement fees from the outset.
â
The result is a seamless, well-managed process, and the confidence that the person you’ve chosen is not just suitable, but the right fit from the very beginning.
What is a Nanny?
A maternity nurse is a highly experienced newborn care specialist who supports families during the precious but often overwhelming early days after birth. Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or adding to your growing family, a maternity nurse offers gentle, expert guidance - ensuring both baby and parents feel supported, rested, and confident.
Working on a live-in or daily/nightly basis, maternity nurses provide hands-on assistance with everything from feeding and sleep routines to postnatal recovery, bottle sterilisation, nappy changes, and soothing techniques. They’re not medical staff, but many have backgrounds in midwifery, paediatrics, or professional childcare, and bring years of experience in newborn care into your home.
â
A nanny is a childcare professional employed by a family to provide consistent, reliable care for their children in the family home. Unlike occasional babysitters, nannies are often a long-term part of family life, building close relationships with the children and supporting their development on a daily basis. Their role can include everything from creating engaging activities and assisting with learning, to preparing meals, managing routines, and providing a safe, nurturing environment. Nannies may live in with the family or work on a daily basis, and their duties are tailored to each household’s unique needs and parenting style.
