How many years' experience working as a Nanny must I have in order to register with Imperial?

We require a minimum of 3 years’ experience working in a private household for UK based roles and, for overseas roles, 5 years’ experience

We don’t charge candidates any application fee.

Whilst we don’t offer CV writing services, we can certainly assist you with laying out your CV clearly in preparation for finding that perfect position.

This varies from client to client, however, your consultant will confirm at the time of offering you an interview whether the client will pay/contribute towards these expenses.

Whilst your childcare experience is invaluable, we require a minimum of 3 + years’ experience working as a nanny within a private household. This ensures that our candidates are fully prepared and given the best chance to succeed in their placements.

We are an authorised body who can assist you with your DBS and the turnaround is pretty swift.

As you will be working with children, you will be required to apply for the Enhanced DBS, which also includes the Barred Listing. We can assist all our applicants with this process

We are affiliated to a fast-track agency who charge £55 to receive an enhanced DBS.

Due to current GDPR legislation, we are not able to hold data for more than two years if we have not engaged in meaningful contact with you.

This also ensures we are fully up to date with your most recent skills and work history to achieve the best placement reflective of your most recent experience!

Imperial is an introduction agency only and all candidates placed in positions are paid directly by the client.

This will be at the employer’s sole discretion. Some employers will contribute but you should budget to move at your own expense in case moving costs aren’t offered

Most Nannies and Governesses will prepare meals and eat with their charges except on their day(s) off.  When off duty, you can either eat when you are out and about or at the family home.

You can be rest assured that all clients who recruit through Imperial will provide written terms of employment set out in the form of a contract.
