Question 1

How do you find holistic and Montessori nannies?

Accepted Answer

We find our nannies through meaningful connections within the Montessori and holistic education community.
Many of our caregivers come to us through personal referrals from families, educators, and schools, as well as our close relationships with Montessori schools, training centres, and holistic education organisations. We are in regular contact with Montessori colleges, early-years institutes, and universities, where thoughtful, child-centred educators are trained with respect for the whole child.
We also connect with caregivers through parenting communities, professional childcare networks, and word-of-mouth, alongside our online presence. Over time, this has allowed us to build a trusted, global network of nurturing Montessori and holistic nannies who share our values.
For every family we support, we actively and intentionally seek caregivers who align not only with a child’s developmental needs, but also with the family’s values, lifestyle, and vision for their child’s upbringing.

Question 2

Can you help us find a bilingual, trilingual, or multilingual nanny?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely.
Many of the caregivers in our community are bilingual or multilingual, and bring a natural love of language, culture, and connection into the home. Our Montessori and holistic nannies often speak two or more languages fluently, including Spanish, French, German, Italian, Mandarin, and others, and are experienced in gently supporting language development through everyday life, play, and meaningful interaction.
Through our international Montessori network, relationships with schools, training centres, and universities, and our global community of educators and caregivers, we are able to thoughtfully support families seeking a nanny with specific language abilities alongside a child-centred, holistic approach.
When a family is looking for a nanny with particular linguistic or educational requirements, we take the time to carefully and intentionally search for the right match. Because these searches are more specialised and values-led, they may require a little more time, allowing us to find a caregiver who truly aligns with both the family and the child.
Our priority is always to create a nurturing, respectful environment where children can grow with confidence, curiosity, and a natural connection to language and culture.

Question 3

What household tasks do nannies usually support with?

Accepted Answer

At Montessori Nannies, a nanny’s primary focus is always the care and wellbeing of the child. However, many families appreciate gentle, practical support that helps the household flow more smoothly day to day.
Alongside childcare, a nanny may lovingly assist with tasks such as:
 • Keeping children’s spaces calm, organised, and inviting
 • Light tidying connected to the children’s daily activities
 • Loading and unloading the dishwasher
 • Preparing simple, nourishing meals for the children
 • Folding and organising children’s laundry
 • Supporting families with small errands as part of the daily rhythm
These tasks are never about replacing household staff, but rather about creating a peaceful, supportive environment where children and families can thrive.
For families seeking more comprehensive household support — such as regular errands, cooking, or organisational help — the role is often described as a Nanny / Family Assistant, reflecting a broader scope of care and responsibility.
We take time to thoughtfully craft each job description, ensuring it clearly reflects your family’s needs, values, and lifestyle, and attracts caregivers who feel genuinely aligned and happy to support your home in this way.

Question 4

About Our Montessori Nanny Candidates

Accepted Answer

Our candidates are nurturing, thoughtful caregivers who are deeply committed to supporting children with respect, presence, and intention.
Each Montessori nanny we represent is carefully selected for their experience, education, and genuine love of working with children. Many come from Montessori or holistic education backgrounds, early-years teaching, psychology, or child development, and share a strong belief in honouring the whole child — emotionally, intellectually, and socially.
Beyond qualifications, we look for warmth, emotional intelligence, and alignment with family values. Our candidates understand the importance of creating calm, prepared environments, supporting independence, and building trusting, respectful relationships with both children and parents.
