Daily/Nightly Maternity Nurses

Daily and nightly maternity nurses provide expert live-out newborn care and parental support in the early weeks or months after birth. A daily maternity nurse comes to the family home during the day, assisting with feeding, establishing routines, and caring for the baby while parents rest or adjust. A nightly maternity nurse arrives in the evening to cover the night shift, giving parents the chance to sleep while ensuring their newborn is cared for safely and expertly.

Live-In Maternity Nurses

A live-in maternity nurse resides in the family’s home for a set period, typically six to twelve weeks, offering round-the-clock support. They provide continuous newborn care, assist with feeding and settling, and guide parents through the early stages of life with a baby. This arrangement is ideal for families who want consistent support and reassurance during the transition into parenthood.

Junior Maternity Nurses

A junior maternity nurse is a childcare professional who has recently qualified or is in the early stages of their career, offering support to families with newborns under the guidance of their training and developing experience. While they may not have the same level of hands-on expertise as more senior maternity nurses, junior maternity nurses bring enthusiasm, up-to-date knowledge, and a strong commitment to supporting new parents. This option can be ideal for families who want reliable newborn care at a lower cost, while still benefiting from professional support during the early weeks.

Live-Out Nannies

A live-out nanny is a professional childcare provider who is employed by and works with a family on a daily basis but does not live in the family home. They usually work agreed hours, such as full-time or part-time days, and return to their own home afterwards. Their duties can include school runs, preparing meals, organising playdates, supporting learning, and ensuring the children’s routines run smoothly. This arrangement suits families who want consistent childcare while maintaining privacy at home.

Live-In Nannies

A live-in nanny lives in the family’s home, either in a private bedroom or separate accommodation provided by the family. This arrangement often allows greater flexibility with working hours and is particularly valuable for families with demanding schedules or those who travel frequently. In addition to daily childcare duties, live-in nannies provide extra support at the start and end of the day, making them an excellent choice for busy households.

Temporary Nannies

A temporary nanny provides short-term childcare cover, typically from a few days to several months. Families often use temporary nannies to cover periods such as school holidays, gaps between permanent childcare arrangements, or during travel. They bring the same professionalism and experience as permanent nannies but with the flexibility of a fixed contract.

Rota Nannies

Rota nannies work on a schedule where two or more nannies rotate shifts to provide 24/7 care. A common arrangement is two weeks on, two weeks off, though this can vary. Rota nannies are particularly suited to high-profile or international families who require around-the-clock childcare and a consistent team to provide continuity for their children.

Ad-Hoc Nannies

An ad hoc nanny provides childcare on an occasional, flexible basis when families need it. This might include covering unexpected work commitments, childcare gaps, or one-off events. Families benefit from knowing they have a trusted professional they can call on whenever needed, without committing to a regular schedule.

Junior Nannies

A junior nanny is often newly qualified or has less hands-on experience than a more senior nanny but brings energy, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn. Junior nannies are well-suited to families who want reliable childcare with a lower salary expectation, and they often work alongside parents or other staff as they build their professional experience.
