What it's like to work as a nanny
As a nanny with nanny.nu, you care for children aged 0–12 in their homes. That might mean picking them up from daycare or school, preparing simple meals, playing, helping with homework, and making sure the evening runs smoothly. Families who book through nanny.nu typically need help on a regular basis — usually evenings, afternoons, or weekends.
You don't need prior professional experience — what matters is a genuine interest in children and the ability to create a sense of safety. You need to be at least 16. We welcome students looking for flexible work, people seeking a meaningful part-time job, and retirees with life experience and patience. Many of our families are English-speaking expats who specifically want an English-speaking nanny. Basic Swedish widens your options but isn't required for every assignment.
You're not alone. Your dedicated nanny specialist is available whenever questions come up, and before every assignment there's a proper introduction so you feel comfortable with the family and children from day one.
