Live-in Nanny/Aupairs
Restless and JCR Australia
Whether you are a qualified nanny or you’ve just got tonnes of babysitting experience, there are plenty of wonderful families in the UK waiting to offer you a home and well paying job too!
All of our positions are secured BEFORE you arrive in the UK. All interviews are conducted by phone prior to you leaving with our pre-qualified families, simple!
It can be hard work arriving in the UK without a job or place to live, and to be so far from home and family can also be very daunting. Working as a nanny or a mother’s help gives you amazing international experience to add to your CV, excellent earning potential and a home rather than a crowded share house or dodgy flat!
The demand for nannies and home help in the UK is high, and there is plenty of work available. Restless have chosen to partner with JCR Australia because they have extensive experience placing nannies, au pairs and mother’s help in the UK. If you have professional qualifications that’s great, but previous babysitting experience is also enough to get you an entry level position. JCR Australia even offer an online Au Pair Training Course if you want to upgrade your skills.

- Completion of Grade 10 School Certificate
- Completion of childminding or Aupair certificate through the on-line JCR Aupair course

- Preference is given to non smokers and applicants who have a manual driving licence.
