Planning a family holiday should be exciting – but with children in tow, it can quickly become a juggling act. From flight changes and jet lag to unfamiliar routines, travelling with little ones isn’t always relaxing. That’s where our experienced travel nannies come in.

Whether you need full maternity support or help with teenagers, we’ll match you with a nanny who provides care, consistency, and calm wherever you go.

What Is a Travel Nanny?

A travel nanny is a professional childcare provider who accompanies your family on holiday. Unlike a hotel kids’ club or resort babysitter, a travel nanny offers one-to-one support tailored to your child’s individual needs – bringing familiarity, routine, and reassurance to every part of the trip.

Whether it’s a weekend in Cornwall or a summer in the South of France, our nannies blend seamlessly into your plans. They’ll be on hand to help manage everything from naptime and mealtimes to long-haul flights and beach days.

Why Families Choose London-Based Travel Nannies

Many families find traditional childcare options during holidays too impersonal or inflexible. Our travel nannies are different – they provide:

  • 1:1 care tailored to your child’s routine and preferences
  • Help maintaining nap, meal, and bedtime habits
  • Supervision on travel days, excursions, and activities
  • Flexibility for parents to enjoy downtime, dinners, or day trips
  • A trusted, familiar presence for children in new surroundings

For high-net-worth families or busy professionals, a travel nanny offers peace of mind and an extra pair of hands – so you can relax, recharge, and enjoy your holiday too.

Travel Nanny Specialists - Based in London

Some agencies try to cover the whole world, but we keep our focus right here in London. We get the everyday realities of family life in the city and we build our support around that. When you need to head off on holiday, our trusted nannies for travel are there to make your life easier wherever you go.

Who Our Travel Nannies Support

We provide travel nanny support for children of all ages – from newborns needing round-the-clock maternity care, to confident teens who benefit from structure, safety, and support while away.

Our nannies can travel with you across the UK or internationally, and are carefully matched based on your family’s preferences, destination, and the needs of your children. Many have additional skills such as language fluency, swimming supervision, and experience with special educational needs.

What You’ll Need to Provide

When hiring a travel nanny, families are typically responsible for:

  • Travel expenses (flights, transfers, visas if needed)
  • Comfortable accommodation (a private room or shared, if agreed)
  • Daily meals, snacks, and drinks
  • Travel insurance that covers the nanny as part of your plans

We’ll walk you through every detail before your trip, ensuring the arrangement works for everyone involved.
