Find Nanny Jobs

Please note: Due to the high volume of enquiries from nannies, we cannot return telephone calls to candidates who have not completed the preliminary registration process below & submitted all documentation. Please remember that over 50% of applications are declined, because they do not meet our acceptance policy standards.

1) Register your details online & email your references & CV.
2) Then visit the jobs board and advise us of any suitable job ID's
3) First we check your references from previous childcare employment.
4) If you have identified a nanny job that you are interested in, we will advise the family of your interest & we will advise similar family vacancies of your availability.
5) If the family perceive that you are a suitable candidate for them, we will contact you again to arrange an interview with one of our interview consultants (subject to satisfactory references obtained in point 3)
6) After you have been agency interviewed & ID checked we will arrange for you to call the family for an informal discussion, or arrange a formal interview with the family.
7) This may lead to a second interview or job offer.
8) If you have not provided all the required information, to include a new CRB & up to date First Aid Certificate. Or if you have not yet been interviewed by the agency, and completed the necessary reference checks. You will not be able to progress to contacting the families

CRB's & OCR (Ofsted Registration)

Nannies approved under the Childcare Approval Scheme (CAS) will continue to be approved until their approval expires (one year after it was granted). Approval under the CAS will mean parents if they are eligible, claim the childcare element of working tax credit and employer supported vouchers.

Ofsted Childcare Register (OCR)

From April 16th 2007 the new Ofsted Childcare Register is being introduced and the CAS will be phased out. The nanny will be required to have a valid first aid certificate and hold public liability insurance

The Nanny will also be required to confirm that she is suitable to work with children and that she has training to a recognised minimum level.

The cost for registration will be £100 per nanny, plus £36 for the CRB check. The CRB check must be done through the post office verify system and will be subject to a £8 admin charge

The Government is subsidising the CRB check in full until April 2008
The Nanny can be approved under the Childcare Approval Scheme until September 2007. After this date the nanny must be Ofsted Registered in order for parents to continue receiving financial support or childcare vouchers.

If the nanny does not wish to register with OFSTED and only requires a CRB, we can arrange documentation to be posted to the nanny. The current application fee for a CRB only is £56.00 inc. vat via NDF Associates
