Live-In Nanny

A live-in nanny position is one in which the nanny actually resides within the home of the family he or she is hired to work for. Typically, a live-in nanny is hired to care for a child or children on a full-time basis and is paid for full-time work. 

Why Would a Family Need a Live-In Nanny?

• Many families have two working parents, forcing them to place their child in daycare. However, some parents are hesitant about daycare and determine that hiring a live-in nanny is the best choice.
• Parents also hire live-in nannies to help when they bring a newborn baby home. Live-in nannies are often responsible for getting up in the middle of the night to bottle feed an infant so that Mom and Dad can get some much-needed rest.

How Many Days Does a Live-In Nanny Work?
Before you accept a live-in nanny position, you should make sure you know how many days per week you are expected to work. Because the days are negotiated between the parties involved, we have seen situations where live-in nanny work for 2 weeks and take the weekend off. It all depends on the arrangement with the employer.
