Becoming a Just Holiday Nanny is a great way to spend your holidays. You have the ability to put all your hard-earned skills to use and earn a good salary in the process.
Don’t worry if you’ve never nannied before, you’re not an au pair, a home help or a tutor…you’re a Just Holiday Nanny. You’re there as a professional and being employed as an “extra pair of hands” to help the holidays run smoothly and ensure the children have fun.
As a Just Holiday Nanny, you will take care of the child or children and entertain and enthuse them for a whole day in a variety of ways, from cricket to cooking, swimming to arts and crafts. You must be willing to perform small household chores for the children, such as preparing meals or tidying rooms, but no cleaning or ironing etc.
If you are willing, families may ask you to tutor, for which an hourly rate will be paid.
