Many NNEB Old Collegians are working as Nannies.

There is still high demand for Nannies especially in London and the role has been evolving into more than one job on a single wage such as Nanny / Housekeeper, Nanny / Maternity Nurse & Housekeeper.

How do you feel about the Nanny industry? Have your say in the comments.

The role of the nanny has long been part of the UK’s childcare landscape, yet there are growing concerns that the profession is being overlooked, undervalued and even at risk of decline, warns early years consultant Debbie Wordley, who started her 40 year career in the sector as a nanny.

Dear NNEBs,

The Nanny, Maternity Nurse, and Private Household Staffing sector remains one of the most unregulated and, sadly, corrupt areas within the childcare industry—both in the UK and internationally.

At National Nursery Examination Board Old Collegians HQ, we fully support the vital whistleblowing efforts being shared through the page linked below. These voices are shedding much-needed light on issues that have been ignored for far too long.

We are actively collaborating with peers and professionals across the industry to push for proper regulation, transparency, and protection for both workers and families.

If you are in a position to help—or if you have insight, experience, or ideas to contribute—please get involved. Comment below or email us directly at [email protected].

Our generation—and successive governments—have turned a blind eye for long enough. The time for action is now.

Anonymous, factual, and calling for urgent government regulation.

🥳Nursery World magazine is turning 100 this year! Along with championing everyone in the early years and being recognised as the sector’s most trusted source of information, Nursery World has also impacted people’s lives in other ways – from longstanding friendships being formed and a national charity beginning on the letters page to even marriage!
