A rota nanny works on a shift system with at least one other nanny, but the team can be larger depending on the family requirements.
They will be responsible for ensuring smooth handovers at the start and end of each shift.
Rota nanny duties may be very much routine focused (as they are providing 24hr care), outside of night-time duties they will arrange age appropriate activities and outings including those with an education focus. Overseeing homework and meal times will also be a pre-requisite. A rota nanny could be required to help the child prepare for/manage a busy international travel schedule.
Amount of input into cooking and cleaning will be a function of the level of staffing in the household.
Availability Rota Nannies offer 24 hour cover, 7 days per week, 365 days per year for a family.
The rota pattern can vary from household to household, but a typical shift pattern would be 7 days on, followed by 7 days off.
Salary expectations A rota nanny salary would typically be between £50,000-£80,000+ gross per annum paid as an average weekly salary.
They would normally expect to take their holidays when on their “off weeks”.
