You’ll be picking them up from school on weekday afternoons, leaving your weekends free for studying, your family, or hobbies. You’ll get between £10.25 to £13.50 depending on experience. Training, insurance, invoicing, and DBS checks taken care of. Here’s what our nannies say: "It’s the best job a student can have. It fits in perfectly with my lifestyle. I love having my evenings free which I wouldn't have from working in a pub and I have most of my day free which I wouldn't get in retail. I get the same amount of hours/work from having a Saturday job but without compromising on my weekends." Work differently. Join Koru Kids.
