This week, Charlotte, Charlie and Millie speak with Chloe from Louenna’s Nannies to uncover what really happens behind the scenes at a nanny agency. With all recruiters coming from childcare backgrounds, Louenna’s Nannies brings a unique understanding to matching nannies with families, and Chloe explains how this experience shapes their onboarding and placement process.

Chloe shares practical advice on how Nannies can present themselves professionally and stand out during interviews. She covers everything from CV essentials to the importance of keeping CPD up to date. She also highlights the key dos and don’ts when applying for roles, emphasising the importance of clear communication, reliability and honest conversations about expectations.

The episode delves into current trends in Nannying styles and how modern roles have evolved in response to family needs. Chloe discusses how the cost of living has affected the market, including increased responsibilities, stagnant salaries, and why salary expectations must be discussed upfront — not after interviews or trials.

Chloe also addresses the complexities around bringing your own child to work, outlining what Nannies should consider and how to negotiate this transparently. Finally, she speaks openly about the lack of support some agencies offer their Nannies, a viewpoint fully aligned with Your Nanny Network.
