There are a variety of ways you can build up your skills to help you get that first role. Below are a few ideas for how you can start your journey to becoming a professional nanny:

  • Do as many sits on Bubble as you can with a variety of age ranges to help build a broader experience and discover which age group you connect with best

  • Look at our regular help section - often parents looking for After School help or shorter, regular support are more flexible with their requirements. (You can see & apply for these roles by enabling Regular Help on your request types found in your profile)

  • Search for roles where you would be supporting the parent rather than having sole charge

  • Volunteer for local playschool/ groups aimed at children

  • Gain an early years childcare qualification

  • Build your childcare experience through working at a nursery

Still, thinking that becoming a professional nanny is the career for you?

Our dedicated Nanny Team would love to speak with you about what you're looking for in a permanent role. Please send over a copy of your CV to nannies@joinbubble.com and introduce yourself to the Bubble team!
