Juggling families and careers is tough for many households. Increasingly both parents work. The UK isn't the most family friendly country in the world. Some employers might be better than others in terms of being accommodating and flexible towards working parents, but increasingly many families need to bring in an extra pair of hands to help look after the children. It's a fact of modern life.

Not everyone can afford or necessarily needs full time help. That's when a part-time nanny can be the perfect solution. If help is only needed occasionally for certain times during the week then this works out just fine.

Other families just need a temporary nanny from time to time, like during the long school summer holidays for example. When the children are off for that long it's difficult for parents to manage. They certainly can't take six weeks off work, so a temporary nanny solves the problem for them. They can get on with their work and leave their children in the care of a trained and responsible childcare professional during those summer months. An arrangement that makes life a little easier for everyone.

The best way to find a part-time nanny or one on a temporary basis is to use an agency. Rather than advertise and sift through responses a reputable agency can do all of the leg work and match nannies to temporary or part-time placements. It's the perfect solution for families in a pickle with their childcare arrangements. The whole process can be sorted in a matter of days.

Hiring a nanny doesn't have to mean full time live in help. The arrangement can be more flexible than that. Thinking about it in these terms makes the prospect far more affordable and appealing to a whole range of families who need a little help from time to time.
