What does full time nanny mean?

full time nanny, nanny, domestic agency

A full time nanny is a dedicated professional who provides comprehensive childcare on a full time basis, typically during the parents’ standard working hours, offering continuity and support. If the nanny possesses the qualities that are important to you, a full time nanny can be a great help for those with busy weekday schedules.

This blog will provide a detailed explanation of the role of a full time nanny, its benefits, and how Royal Maison helps you find the perfect professional for your family in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Finding the ideal nanny for your child is not an easy task, but it is extremely important to ensure that your child spends time with experienced and qualified nannies.

What does a full time nanny do?

Hiring a full-time nanny means bringing a trustworthy individual into your home—someone dedicated to the well-being and development of your child. Her role encompasses a wide range of responsibilities that contribute to family harmony and the child’s progress. She becomes an integral part of your household’s daily rhythm, providing not only care but also support, education, and stability.

Core responsibilities of a full time nanny

The daily duties of a full time nanny are diverse and tailored to the family’s needs. She takes care of daily childcare tasks, including preparing age-appropriate meals, assisting with feeding, and maintaining hygiene. Additionally, a full-time nanny plans and carries out educational activities and games that support the child’s development, ensuring the child stays engaged and happy throughout the day. 

She often assists with homework, organizes outings and sports activities, and monitors the child’s development, adjusting activities to meet their growing needs. This gives parents enough time to complete their important tasks without stress and on time. Ultimately, the main goal is to ensure a stimulating and safe environment where children can thrive.

Here are some of the key responsibilities carried out by a full time nanny:

  • Comprehensive childcare: This includes feeding, changing, bathing, and ensuring the child’s overall health and well-being.
  • Developmental activities: Organizing games, reading, art activities, and outings that promote cognitive, physical, and emotional development.
  • Homework and learning assistance: Supporting school tasks and helping with learning new skills.
  • Schedule management: Overseeing the child’s daily routine, including sleep, meals, and playtime.
  • Communication with parents: Regularly updating parents about the child’s progress and any important events. The domestic agency Royal Maison explicitly requires all of its nannies to maintain constant contact with both the parents and the agency. This way, we can learn how well the child has accepted the nanny and whether they are a good match.
  • Basic household duties related to the children: Maintaining the play area, the child’s room, and the child’s clothing.

The difference between a full time nanny and other options

While babysitters or part-time nannies are suitable for occasional care, a full-time nanny offers continuity and personalized attention that is invaluable. Unlike daycare centers, where groups of children are larger and attention is divided, a full time nanny is dedicated exclusively to your child, adapting to the rhythm and habits of your family.

This allows for the creation of a deeper bond and a better understanding of the child’s individual needs, which is crucial for their emotional and cognitive development. Your full-time nanny becomes an integral part of the family environment, providing the stability and consistency in care that the child needs.

The continuous presence of the same person creates a sense of security and belonging, which is vital for the child’s emotional stability. A full-time nanny is not only responsible for physical care but also acts as a mentor, friend, and role model who actively participates in shaping the child’s personality.

Benefits of hiring a full time nanny for your family

Hiring a full time nanny is a decision that brings numerous benefits for both parents and the overall family dynamic. This investment pays off through a more peaceful family life, better child development, and a reduction of daily stress.

Stability and continuity in child care

One of the greatest advantages of a full-time nanny is the stability and continuity she provides. A full-time nanny ensures a consistent routine and the presence of a familiar person. This stability is crucial for the child’s emotional development and building trust. With a full-time nanny, there is no need for constant adjustment to new faces or environments, which reduces stress and anxiety for both children and parents. The continuous presence of the same full time nanny allows for a deeper understanding of the child’s individual needs and the development of a consistent approach to their upbringing.

Personalized attention and development

A full-time nanny provides an individual approach that is difficult to achieve with other forms of childcare, such as daycare centers. She can focus on the specific needs of your child, recognize their interests and talents, and tailor activities to encourage their development in the best possible way. 

Peace of mind for parents

Hiring a full-time nanny relieves parents of significant stress and time constraints, allowing for a better balance between work and personal life. Knowing that your child is in the safe hands of a dedicated professional provides invaluable peace of mind. Parents can focus on their responsibilities, confident that their child is receiving the best possible care in the comfort of their own home. Reducing logistical concerns around childcare frees up energy that can be devoted to work, personal interests, or quality time with family.
