For more than 55 years, HomeOrganisers has been helping families across London, Surrey, the Home Counties and further afield find the right nanny for their home. With offices in Weybridge, Surrey and Mayfair, London, we combine local insight with a wide network to match you with someone who not only has the right skills, but also fits your way of parenting. Our goal is always the same, to introduce you to a nanny who has the skills you need, fits your parenting style, and works well within your home.
Whether your family follows Gentle Parenting, Montessori, Waldorf, or prefers a more traditional approach, we’ll help you find a nanny who supports your values and your children’s needs.
Why the right nanny changes everything
We know how much difference the right nanny can make , not just to your children, but to the whole rhythm of your home. Picture the morning: the baby is content after breakfast, your toddler is happily stacking blocks, and the older children are calmly gathering their things for the day ahead. The house feels peaceful, everything is in hand, and you can start your day without rushing. That’s the kind of harmony the right nanny brings.
Why so many families choose a full-time nanny
- Care that’s consistent and centred on your children’s needs and tailored to each child.
- Less daily stress for you as school runs, meal prep, activities and homework are all handled
- Someone who understands your family values and works in tune with them
- Complete discretion and professionalism at all times

Real-life examples of successful placements
Weybridge – baby and toddler
We placed a gentle, confident daily nanny for a family with a 10-month-old and a 3-year-old. Mornings start with breakfast and the nursery drop-off, followed by sensory play and walks with the baby. In the afternoons, she brings the siblings together for shared play, dinner and bedtime so evenings stay calm.
Kensington – pre-schooler and school-age child
This family wanted a nanny who could keep everything running smoothly between nursery and school. She keeps uniforms and kits ready, organises activities, and has meals on the table, so evenings are relaxed and unhurried.
Kent – toddler and older children
A busy professional couple with a 3-year-old, 7-year-old and 9-year-old needed a nanny who could meet very different needs. She uses Montessori-inspired learning for the youngest and supports the older two with homework, sports and growing independence.
Wimbledon – teenagers with multiple tutors
This family’s teenagers had a packed week of tutoring, sport and music. We found them a nanny who keeps every timetable, kit and resource organised, and works closely with tutors to make sure nothing is missed.
What full-time means in 2025
Most daily (live-out) , full time nannies work 50 to 60 hours a week, usually 7am to 7pm or 8am to 6pm so they fit in with working parents’ schedules.
Live-in nannies generally work around 60 hours a week over five days, and often include one or two nights of babysitting.
Duties – shaped to your family
Babies and toddlers – Feeding, naps, sensory play, developmental activities, and gentle outdoor time.
Pre-school and primary – School or nursery runs, nutritious meals, encouraging independence, and supporting learning through play or structured activities.
Older children and teenagers – Homework supervision, sports and activity schedules, and coordination with tutors.
Across all ages, a nanny may also handle child-related laundry, organise play spaces, and liaise with other household staff. If you also need wider household help, we can design a blended role so everyone is clear on what’s expected.
Pay in 2025 – what to expect
From the Nannytax 2025 Salary Guide:
- London daily nanny – about £19.51 per hour gross (£50,726 a year for 50 hours)
- Greater London and Home Counties daily nanny – about £17.86 per hour gross (£46,436 a year)

Rates may be higher for highly experienced or highly qualified nannies, for roles involving multiple children, specialist skills such as newborn care or special educational needs, extended hours, proxy parenting or regular travel.
Getting it right from the start
The best placements start with a clear understanding of your children’s personalities, daily routines and the way you parent. For some families, that means a nanny who embraces a gentle, nurturing style. For others, it’s someone who encourages structure, academic focus, or active outdoor lifestyles. Whatever your priorities, we’ll help define the role so it attracts the right calibre of professional and supports a lasting match.

A recent success
A Surrey family came to us three months before the end of maternity leave. We shaped the role together, placed a nanny experienced in newborn care, and arranged a gradual start. By the time the parent returned to work, the baby was thriving and the home was running smoothly.
