Why do I need nanny insurance?

  1. Nanny insurance is important personal protection for you. Accidents can happen, and this protection means that you have some cover in place should something happen whilst children are in your care.
  1. Nanny insurance encourages a positive working relationship between you and your employer. By taking out an insurance policy, you are showing your employer (or potential employers!) that you have been proactive in putting protection in place. Plus, having a nanny insurance policy is in your employer’s best interest as it means eligible parents can benefit from government support schemes, such as Tax-Free Childcare! 

  2. Having insurance enhances your professional status. Nanny insurance is a part of Ofsted registration, and many parents actively look to hire Ofsted registered nannies. So, having nanny insurance could make you more employable and help you to stand out against other candidates!
