THOUGHTFULLY, FOR YOUR HOME
Nannies and childcare in the UAE
Choosing a nanny starts with your child’s and family’s routine. Share the age group, care times and expected duties, then discuss suitable experience, introductions and supervision.
Before you enquire
This guide helps you describe your needs clearly. The confirmed offer determines duties, availability and final cost; listing a task does not mean it is automatically available.
- Is the care for an infant or an older child?
- Which duties concern childcare and which are separate household tasks?
- How will interviews, introductions and suitability checks work?
A practical task plan
Describe the family routine
Explain meal, sleep and activity times and how to communicate with the parent or guardian.
Review suitability
Discuss experience with the relevant age group and ask about available qualifications and references.
A family-supervised start
Explain responsibilities, family instructions and important contacts before duties begin.
What needs confirmation?
Qualifications and experience are reviewed for each enquiry. Childcare does not imply nursing or treatment; specialised needs require an appropriately qualified provider.
