What is a travel nanny?

A travel nanny is a professional caregiver who accompanies your family on trips to provide consistent, high-quality childcare while you’re away from home. They’re experienced travelers who help ensure your children feel comfortable, secure, and engaged, even in unfamiliar environments.

Travel nannies can assist with a wide variety of trips, including family vacations, business travel, destination weddings, weekend getaways, and extended stays abroad. Whether you’re visiting multiple cities or settling into a summer home, a travel nanny adapts to your itinerary and supports your family’s unique needs throughout the journey.

Yes, you can arrange for a travel nanny to meet you at your destination rather than accompany you for the entire journey. This can be a convenient option for families who prefer to travel independently but still want professional childcare support once they arrive. These nannies are briefed in advance to align with your child(ren)’s routines and care preferences, helping ensure a smooth transition.

A travel nanny’s duties mirror those of a full-time nanny, but with added flexibility and travel-savvy support. This includes helping with packing and organizing for children, entertaining and supervising them during flights or long drives, maintaining nap and mealtime routines, and assisting during events or outings.

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially during peak travel seasons and school holidays. Ideally, families secure a travel nanny at least 4–6 weeks in advance to allow time for introductions, itinerary planning, and logistical preparations. However, we do our best to accommodate last-minute needs whenever possible.
