What employers look forFrom the Childcare Specialist guide

Captains and family offices want proof. That means a recognised qualification such as CACHE Level 3, Norland or NNEB, or a background in teaching or paediatric nursing. You also need an enhanced DBS or equivalent police check, paediatric first aid and references from private families that can be checked. A lifeguard or swim teaching qualification sets you apart. Languages help a great deal, and French, Russian, Arabic and Mandarin speakers are always in demand. Discretion matters as much as skill. You will see a family up close and must never talk about it.
