What is a Travel Nanny?

Travel Nannies: Childcare Wherever Life Takes You

Travel nannies provide professional, attentive childcare for families on the move - whether you’re heading off on a vacation, traveling for work, relocating, or spending an extended period abroad. They offer seamless care in hotels, resorts, private villas, and yachts, ensuring children feel safe, supported, and settled no matter where they are.

A key benefit of hiring a travel nanny is consistency. Children can maintain their routines - mealtimes, naps, play, and bedtime - even in brand-new environments. Travel nannies can also support families during flights, road trips, and layovers, helping journeys run smoothly from door to door.

Depending on your needs, a travel nanny can provide sole care or work alongside parents during events and holidays, giving adults the freedom to rest, attend meetings, or enjoy special occasions knowing their children are well looked after.

Why Families Hire a Travel Nanny

• An extra pair of hands to make travel calmer and more enjoyable
• Support during weddings, events, meetings, and busy schedules
• Peace of mind that children are safe, happy, and cared for
• Help keeping children in routine in new environments
• Childcare support during flights, layovers, and road trips

Pay & Expenses

Travel nanny services are typically paid at higher rates than a standard, everyday nanny role. Pay is usually agreed hourly or as a daily rate, and families generally cover all travel-related expenses such as flights, accommodation, and meals.
