For families
01
Create your profile and tell us about your family, your minis and your routine.
02
Tell us what you are looking for, the dates, hours and any must-haves. A simple, efficient process that takes just a few minutes.
03
Once we have reviewed your request, we send you a payment link for the advertising fee. This must be paid before your role goes live.
04
We search our network of local nannies and babysitters and shortlist the nannies who match your brief.
05
We pass the full nanny pack to you: WWCC, references, experience and mandatory credentials. No chasing, no missing details, all wrapped up in one place.
06
You know your mini best. The final decision is always yours, and you select which nanny you would like to go with.
07
Pay the finder's fee to secure your nanny and meet them. If it does not work out, do not stress, we will readvertise free of charge or you can select another nanny.
Quick, easy, and local. Real humans manage every match.
One off
A single flat fee to list your role across our network. No hidden costs, no surprises.
One off
Paid only when you lock in your nanny. After that, they work directly for you. No ongoing fees, ever. We don't take a cut of their wages.
Peace of mind
If it doesn't work out, we rematch you at no extra cost. Low fees, on your side.
Three simple ways we help families find the right local nanny.
Casual babysitting
A casual babysitting role is all about caring for minis while parents or guardians are away. Babysitters keep minis entertained, safe and comfortable, and help with basic needs like feeding, play and bedtime. Mini safety and wellbeing is always at the forefront.
Nannying
A nannying role is more regular, long term care for a specific family, often weekly. Nannies build meaningful bonds with minis, create a nurturing environment and become a trusted part of the family routine.
Last minute & events
Need a nanny in a hurry? We can usually find a babysitter within 48 hours. For same day emergency requests, submit at reasonable hours and we will do our very best. We are not always miracle makers, but we always try. The earlier you reach out, the better we can help. Perfect for weddings, parties, dinners and any event that needs an extra pair of hands.

thank you notes from mum
"The Nannying Network was fantastic! Our babysitter Arissa was an absolute dream and our kids just adored her. We had a last minute booking and were matched with what we would consider the perfect big sister for our kids in just under 48 hours. Absolute 10/10."
