Cover for every kind of day

Regular after-school care, school holidays, or a call at 7am because your nanny is ill. One agency covers all of it. Most families start with a part-time nanny: an after-school nanny, a before-school nanny, or both.

All services and what's included

Before & after school nannies

The 3pm–7pm squeeze: pick-ups, clubs, homework and dinner

  • Fixed weekly schedule with one consistent carer, booked term by term
  • Covers the 3pm–7pm squeeze: pick-up, clubs, homework, dinner, bedtime
  • Backup cover arranged by us if your regular nanny is ever unwell

From £15–£20 gross per hour based on experience

More on before & after school

An afternoon with less screen time

Our carers plan the hours around movement, games and fresh air, so your children come home tired, happy and ready for the evening. Pick an age to play a typical school day.
