Childcare in Gothenburg — choose your arrangement
Pickup and afternoon care
Your nanny picks up from school or preschool, handles snacks and activities until you get home. Your specialist maps pickup locations and commute routes so it runs smoothly.
About afternoon careEvening and weekend care
Dinner, play and bedtime when you need an evening to yourselves. Regular or on-demand — your nanny already knows the children's routines and favourite books.
About evening careInfant care

What is the RUT deduction? RUT is a Swedish tax deduction for household services, including childcare. You get 50% back, up to 75,000 SEK per person per year. Through Nanny.nu, the deduction is applied automatically — you pay the reduced price directly.

Leaving your child with someone new is a big decision. That's why our vetting process goes beyond what's legally required.
Recruitment and personal interview
Every candidate is personally interviewed by our recruitment team. We assess not just experience and skills but also personality, commitment and ability to create a sense of safety. Only a fraction of all applicants proceed to matching.
Background check and references
Background check against all Swedish criminal registers is a requirement — not an option. References are collected and verified by contacting previous families and employers. No nanny is introduced without an approved check.
Insurance and ongoing follow-up
All nannies are employed by us with liability insurance, holiday pay and pediatric CPR certification. Your nanny specialist follows up after the start and is available throughout the entire engagement.

Reviews from families
“A serious and reliable agency. I've felt trust and confidence from the very first contact. We received thorough and relevant information with clear communication throughout the matching. We're so happy to finally have NannyNu and our nanny in our lives.”
“We've used NannyNu for 10 years. Virtually all the nannies have been fantastic with our children and very much appreciated. Recruiting a new nanny is a standardised process at NannyNu and it works very well. A straightforward company to deal with.”
“We used Nanny.nu for a nanny over our wedding weekend and we're very happy with the person who helped us. It felt safe, though it was more expensive than other services. For us to fully enjoy our wedding, it was worth it.”
“A serious and good company, with friendly and experienced nannies. We've used the service in Jönköping and have only good experiences. Great and fast service from the company, and as I said, friendly and professional nannies you can trust.”
FAQ about nannies in Gothenburg
Gothenburg is Nanny.nu's fastest-growing market outside Stockholm. Families across the Gothenburg area, from Linnéstaden's city blocks to Askim's residential streets, share the same everyday reality. Pickup, activities, dinner. And the need for a nanny who actually works week after week.
Nannies across Gothenburg's neighbourhoods
Gothenburg's neighbourhoods differ in character. Linnéstaden and Majorna are home to young families with evening and weekend needs. Haga offers central living near Slottsskogen park. Örgryte and Härlanda have many families seeking regular afternoon care. Askim and Hovås attract families wanting proximity to the coast with a residential feel. Your nanny specialist maps your needs and finds a nanny who suits your area's everyday life.
Nannies across the greater Gothenburg area
Many Gothenburg-based families live in the surrounding municipalities. Nanny.nu matches families across the entire region. Mölndal borders Gothenburg directly and attracts families with shorter commutes. Kungsbacka offers coastal living south of the city. Lerum and Partille sit east of Gothenburg with nature-close residential areas. Kungälv north of the river suits families seeking small-town character with city access. Härryda includes Mölnlycke and attracts growing families.
Hisingen, Gothenburg's largest island, offers mixed housing from new developments to residential streets. International families in the automotive and tech sectors often settle here or in central Gothenburg, and our specialists understand the scheduling demands these careers bring.
How we match you with the right nanny
Every match begins with a conversation. Your nanny specialist listens to your children's ages, your schedule, and what matters to you. Then we search among 50,000+ vetted candidates via Yepstr and select a nanny who fits. Not a list to choose from: one person we believe suits your family. You'll meet the nanny before you decide.
Safety in Gothenburg
Every candidate undergoes a criminal background check via the Swedish Police Authority and CPR certification through an authorised provider. Your nanny is employed by us with liability insurance. You carry no employer responsibility. You can see the entire process in your matching room. We hide nothing.
Why Gothenburg families choose Nanny.nu
Gothenburg's spread, from Hisingen to Kungsbacka, makes it difficult to find a nanny who lives close enough. Nanny.nu has access to candidates across the entire Gothenburg area and matches you with a nanny in your neighbourhood. Your nanny specialist follows up after the start. If the match doesn't work, we'll find a new nanny at no extra cost.
Where expat families live in Gothenburg
Majorna and Linnéstaden attract creative, family-oriented internationals with walkable streets, independent shops, and easy access to Slottsskogen park. Hovås, south along the coast, offers suburban living with gardens and proximity to the International School of Gothenburg. Central Gothenburg suits families who want short commutes to employers like Volvo, SKF, and AstraZeneca.
Your nanny specialist understands these neighbourhoods and matches candidates who fit the rhythms of west coast family life — tram routes, coastal walks, and after-school football.
Resources for English-speaking families
Gothenburg's international community is smaller than Stockholm's but tightly connected. The International School of Gothenburg, English-speaking parent networks, and a growing number of bilingual activities make settling in smoother. A nanny who communicates in English gives your family continuity at home while your children build confidence in Swedish.
