Nanny
The person who will spend more waking hours with your children than anyone but you deserves more than a CV and a smile. Our nannies are police-checked, reference-called, first-aid trained and proven on a paid trial day in your home — full-time, part-time or live-in.
Sound familiar?
You don't need the job description written — that's our job. Tell us what a good week looks like on LINE or WhatsApp and a matcher turns it into a role, hours and a rate before you see a single profile.
- A new job, a new baby or a new city, and no family nearby
- A nanny who left, called in sick again, or never quite fit
- School runs, after-school hours and homework that don't fit a working day
- Two children under five and a partner who travels
- You want an English-speaking nanny and can't find one you trust
The CareRova way
The brief
Children's ages, hours, languages, live-in or out, driving, cooking, anything else. Fifteen minutes on a call turns it into a role and a written rate.

Need someone tonight?
Our babysitters are the same vetted people, by the hour with a four-hour minimum — bookable the same day until 22:00. Many families meet their long-term nanny that way.

Live-in or live-out?+
Live-out for families who want evenings to themselves; live-in for early starts, late finishes, travel and newborns. Live-in needs a private room and runs six days a week with a full day off. The rates page shows both, and we'll say honestly which fits on the call.
Can I get an English-speaking nanny?+
Yes — say so on the brief and the shortlist will only include nannies who interviewed in English. They're in higher demand, so allow a few more days and expect the upper end of the guide rate.
What happens if she's sick?+
On managed long-term placements we send a vetted cover nanny — often one who has already met your family as a sitter — and the day is included in your monthly rate.
