A live-in nanny for your Bali villa, for as long as you are here
The most relaxing way to holiday with children. Your nanny lives in with you, takes the early mornings and the bedtimes, and is simply there whenever you need her, so the days feel like a holiday for the grown-ups too.

- Weekly and monthly
- Families and groups
- Long stays and digital nomads
How a live-in nanny works
Most villas in Bali have a spare bedroom or staff quarters, and that is all a live-in nanny needs. She joins you for the length of your stay, typically working six days a week with agreed hours each day and a day off, and is on hand for breakfast, pool time, naps, dinner and bedtime. Evenings out stop being a logistics exercise: the kids are already asleep in their own beds with someone they know.
Before you arrive we agree the routine, the hours, which days are off and what is included (for example cooking simple kids' meals, washing swimmers and towels, tidying toys). You cover meals and accommodation; everything else is in the quoted weekly rate.
Who our live-in nannies are
Our live-in nannies are our most experienced carers. Many have worked for expat families or with returning holiday families for years, have raised their own children, and are used to living alongside a family respectfully: present when needed, discreet when not. They hold BIMC basic life support (CPR) training, speak good English and are personally known to us.
We match carefully for live-in roles. Tell us your children's ages, personalities and needs, where you are staying and how you like to holiday, and we will suggest one or two nannies and arrange a video call before you commit.

Live-in Holiday Nanny: your questions
What do I need to provide for a live-in nanny in Bali?
A private room or staff quarters to sleep in, meals while she is working, and reasonable rest time each day plus a day off each week. Most villa managers can confirm whether a staff room is available. Everything else, including her wages and our vetting, is in the quoted weekly rate.
What hours does a live-in nanny work?
We agree this with you in advance. A typical pattern is up to 10 to 12 hours of care a day across six days, split around the children's routine (for example 7am to 1pm and 5pm to 9pm), with a full day off. Overnight settling of babies can be included by arrangement.
Can we meet the nanny before we book?
Yes. For live-in bookings we arrange a short video call so you can meet the nanny, ask questions and make sure it feels right. If you are already in Bali we can arrange a meet-and-greet at your villa.
Is a live-in nanny suitable for babies?
Yes. We have nannies who specialise in newborns and infants, including bottle preparation, sterilising, settling and safe sleep. Tell us your baby's age and routine and we will match accordingly.
