Choosing someone to care for your children is one of the most personal decisions a family can make. For many parents, a Norland nanny is the first name that comes to mind, and it’s easy to see why. Trained at Norland University of Early Childhood in Bath, Norland nannies are respected around the world for their knowledge, warmth and professionalism.
Above all, though, our job is to find the person your children will love spending time with and you will trust completely. We support families in London, across the UK and around the world.
Superstar Nannies is an independent agency and is not affiliated with, or acting on behalf of, Norland University or the Norland Agency. For information about Norland training, please visit norland.ac.uk.
A Norland nanny has trained at Norland University of Early Childhood, which is still known by many as Norland College. Norland has been preparing people to care for young children since 1892, and its graduates work with families all over the world.
Norland’s approach combines learning with practical experience. Norlanders study for a degree in early childhood education and care alongside the Norland Diploma, which focuses on the practical side of life as a professional nanny.
During their training, they complete eight placements, spending time with real children and families as well as in the lecture theatre. For full details of the course, Norland’s website is the best place to look.
Every family is different, so every search starts with a conversation. We want to understand how your days run, what matters to you as parents, and what your children are like: their personalities, their routines, and the things that make them happy. A great nanny is someone who fits naturally into your home, not just someone with an impressive CV.
If a Norland-trained nanny is the right fit and a suitable candidate is available, we will introduce them. We will also be honest with you when someone with a different background might suit your family better. Early years teachers, Montessori-trained nannies and newborn specialists can all bring something special, and we want you to have a genuine choice.
Your peace of mind matters too. Every nanny we represent has a verified employment history, strong references, an enhanced DBS check, and current first-aid certification. You might need a live-in nanny for your London home, a rota nanny so there’s always someone familiar for the children, or a nanny who can travel with your family. Whichever it is, we’ll be with you from the first conversation to the day your nanny starts. We stay in touch afterwards too, because the best relationships between families and nannies are the ones that are looked after.
Many of the families we work with divide their time between homes and countries, and children thrive on consistency wherever they are. We place nannies in London and across the UK, as well as in New York, Palm Beach, Miami, Dubai, Monaco and beyond.
International roles usually include a package on top of salary, often covering accommodation, flights and health insurance. We’ll talk you through what’s typical for your location so everyone knows what to expect.
A nanny’s salary depends on their experience, location, hours, responsibilities, and whether the role is live-in or live-out.
As a guide, full-time live-in nannies placed through Superstar Nannies typically earn £45,000 to £65,000+ gross per year, and full-time live-out nannies £55,000 to £80,000+. Norland-trained and highly experienced nannies often sit towards the top of those ranges, or above them.
In the United States, live-in roles typically range from $75,000 to $120,000+ and live-out roles from $90,000 to $140,000+. UK families should also budget for employer National Insurance, pension contributions and holiday entitlement. We’ll give you clear guidance based on your family’s needs before you commit to anything.
Whether you have a Norland-trained nanny in mind or would simply like to talk through your options, we’d love to hear from you. Register as a family or get in touch with our team, and we’ll start finding the right person for your children.
