Offshore Nannies matches highly qualified, highly experienced UK nannies with families on the Cayman Islands

–As the global cost of childcare continues to increase, a company in the Cayman Islands has been working to bring experienced UK nannies to local families.

Offshore Nannies (www.offshorenannies.ky) provides a complete service to help families find their ideal nanny, and give nannies from the UK the opportunity to live and work on the Cayman Islands.

“Families on the Cayman Islands expect the best for their children, and the UK has a world-class reputation in childcare,” says Chris Burke at Offshore Nannies. “Crucially, it’s a reputation we can demonstrate, using formal qualifications like the BA in Early Childhood Studies and safety checks like the CRB. Offshore Nannies provides a way for families to connect with UK nannies, find out their credentials, and get complete peace of mind when allowing a nanny into their home. This ensures a good match, and helps develop children’s English language skills with the support of native English nannies.”

Offshore Nannies uses a detailed selection process to find nannies. Requirements include a minimum of two years experience in childcare, first aid training, and a formal childcare qualification. These checks are in place to guarantee the professionalism and suitability of a nanny before they are placed into a family.

But the work of Offshore Nannies does not stop there. After finding a nanny, the company applies for necessary work permits, supplies uniforms, and collects the nanny from the airport before making introductions to the family. Then, the company continues to offer ongoing support, including healthcare and pension contributions as well as access to the ‘nanny network’, an informal group of English nannies working on the islands. Over the long term, Offshore Nannies then helps nannies to progress during their employment, giving them ongoing career development.

Chris believes this helps to guarantee the best possible outcome for nannies and families alike.

“Offshore Nannies is a company built on the idea of consistency,” he adds. “It can be very difficult to predict how nannies will work with a family for the long-term, and that’s the obstacle we try to overcome by providing consistent support. So, for a small introductory fee, we do everything we can to source, vet, and provide the right nanny for a family – and support them both into the future with development and career progression.”
