How it works.
Hire a yacht nanny for your charter
Luxury yacht nannies for families on charter in Monaco, Italy, Spain, Croatia and Greece. One nanny, matched by hand, paid directly at a clear hourly rate.
Luxury yacht nannies
Childcare on board, handled for you.
A yacht nanny lives the charter with your family. They look after your children on deck, at swim stops and ashore, keep routines going on sea days, and give you time to enjoy the yacht.
We find experienced charter and superyacht nannies, fly them to your embarkation port and help with every travel detail. You meet your nanny by video before you sail, and they join you on board from the first morning to the last.
Swim stops, sea days and calm evenings.
How to hire a yacht nanny.
Four simple steps from first enquiry to your first morning at sea. July and August book up first, so start as soon as your charter dates are confirmed.
Tell us about your charter
Fill in our enquiry form with your dates, embarkation port, yacht and children. It takes about five minutes and there is nothing to pay.
A call with us
We talk through your family, routines, ages, any special needs and your itinerary by video or phone, and answer your questions about hiring a yacht nanny.
Meet your shortlist
We introduce nannies we have interviewed by video and reference checked, with their hourly rates. You meet them by video and choose the right fit.
Book and set sail
You agree hours and terms with your nanny and pay them directly. We help plan flights and hotels, and your nanny joins you on board from day one.
Yacht nanny rates
What you pay your nanny.
Charter nanny
$40 to $55 an hour. One or two children, with a nanny who has worked on yachts before.
Senior charter nanny
$55 to $70 an hour. Three or more children, babies and toddlers, or a nanny who speaks a second language.
Specialist nanny
$70 to $80 an hour. Newborn care, special needs experience, Montessori or early years training, or tutoring on board.
Five day minimum
We place yacht nannies for a full charter or a block of at least five days. We do not place nannies for a single day.
Paid directly to your nanny
You pay your nanny, not us. The exact rate depends on experience, the number of children and the hours you need. Travel, accommodation, transport and meals are paid by the family.
Flights, hotels and transfers.
Your nanny flies in for your charter and home again afterwards. We help plan the travel so it fits your schedule, and the family covers the costs.
Flights in and out
Your nanny flies in to meet the yacht and flies home when the charter ends. We help find flights that work for your schedule and theirs.
Hotels nearby
If your nanny needs a night ashore before embarkation, or the yacht has no spare cabin, we help find a hotel close to the marina.
Transfers
Airport pickups, marina transfers and local transport for your nanny, arranged when you need them.
One plan for everyone
We coordinate dates and embarkation with you, your charter broker and the captain, so your nanny arrives on time.

Yacht nanny questions.
How much does a yacht nanny cost?
Our yacht nannies charge between $40 and $80 an hour, paid directly to the nanny. The rate depends on experience, the number and ages of your children, and any specialist skills. The family also covers flights, accommodation, transport and meals.
How do I hire a yacht nanny?
Fill in our enquiry form, have a short call with us, and we introduce a shortlist of nannies who have been interviewed by video and reference checked. You choose your nanny, agree terms and pay them directly.
Is there a minimum booking?
Yes, five days. Most families book a nanny for the whole charter, from embarkation to the last morning. We do not place nannies for a single day.
Who pays for the nanny’s flights and hotel?
The family covers your nanny’s flights in and out, any hotel nights, transfers and meals. We help find flights that suit everyone’s schedule and hotels close to the marina.
How many hours a day does a yacht nanny work?
You agree this with your nanny before the charter. Many families book 8 to 10 hours a day plus a few evenings. Any extra hours are agreed in advance.
Does the nanny live on board?
On most larger yachts the nanny has a crew or guest cabin. On smaller yachts they stay in a hotel nearby and join the yacht each morning in port.
What is the difference between a yacht nanny and a babysitter?
A yacht nanny stays with your family for the whole charter, follows your children’s routines and is used to life at sea. A babysitter usually covers a few hours ashore.
Do you place superyacht nannies?
Yes. We place nannies on private and charter superyachts, from a single charter to a full summer season on board.
Who employs the nanny?
You do. We are a referral service: we find, interview and introduce the right nanny, and you hire and pay them directly.
What does your service cost?
Our referral fee depends on the length of your charter and is confirmed when we send your shortlist. There is nothing to pay to enquire.
How early should we book?
July and August book up first. Get in touch as soon as your charter dates are confirmed.
Where do you place yacht nannies?
Monaco and the French Riviera, Italy, Spain, Greece and the whole Croatian coast. Montenegro and other Mediterranean ports on request.
