In Britain, royal nannies cared for the physical and emotional needs of future kings and queens. Picking the right nanny was then and is still essential today. When a family member can’t be there, it’s imperative to select a thoroughly vetted nanny.

We differentiate between a baby sitter and a nanny because a baby sitter works only as needed, while a nanny works more consistently, live in, live out, full time, part time or just on weekends. Oftentimes it feels as if the nanny becomes part of the family.

A nanny’s responsibility is to nurture children with warmth and dedication while being sensitive and respectful to the parents priorities for raising their child. She feeds, cleans, transports them and is committed to keeping them healthy and happy. She teaches basic skills and helps a child recognize their talents while patiently encouraging them to reach their full potential.
