Norland College has been providing best-in-class Norland nannies for over 130 years.
Students study a BA Degree in Early Years Development and Learning, followed by a year being monitored as a New Qualified Nanny before finally being able to call themselves a Norlander.
These nannies will go on to work as overseas nannies, live–out nannies, live–in nannies and maternity nurses.
During their training they will have hands on experience working in a variety of placements which will offer them an intimate understanding of the job, backed up by the excellent academic training provided by the college.
Norland nanny duties can include; arranging age applicable activities and trips, cooking meals, overseeing homework, children’s laundry & ironing, providing feedback to parents and developing routines.
Latest Candidates
The average time to recruit a nanny from start to finish is 2-6 weeks.
The Signature Staff team spend a considerable amount of effort to draw up a shortlist of candidates whom are the best-fit for your household based on your requirements and their skill-set and personality.
Further time needs to be allowed for the schedules of both the client and candidates for interviews and possible subsequent trials particularly for overseas roles.
If you require and position to be filled urgently please advise your consultant of your anticipated time frame and we will work out hardest to fulfil your request.
For a temporary nanny the process can prove to be over a significantly shorter time frame (as little as 1 hour).
There are many educational qualifications available to nannies in the UK:
Each country will have their own courses; in Australia this could be a TAFE Diploma in Community services whereas in New Zealand there is a government based initiative which aims to teach parents and child carers alike the best way to look after young children. A few nannies will have gone through the PORSE system and completed their qualifications.
