Different Roles of the Bangkok Childcare professional

Nannies work on a live-out or live-in arrangement, providing care for children on a shared or sole charge basis. In addition to the care provided, a nanny will perform nursery duties to include washing and ironing for the children, keeping their bedrooms and play areas tidy, preparing home-cooked meals for the children and will also make sure that common areas such as the kitchen are kept clean and tidy.

A Nanny/Maid will do more as the title suggests, by including housekeeping as part of the role. Nanny/Maids will typically work for families where the children are at school or kindergarten for part of the day.

* A live-in nanny can offer more flexibility to include earlier starts or working later into the evenings. This offers more choices to families who may have demanding jobs or other commitments. Live-in nannies should be provided with adequate accommodation, not shared with the children (if possible) and the accommodation should be available for your nanny to use on her days off (if needed) and not only during the hours that she is on duty.

* A live-out nanny will work set hours on specific days each week, she has the Bangkok traffic to contend with on the way to work and then again on her way home. Her working hours will typically be between 8-10 hours per day. Any additional hours should be paid for as overtime at the end of each shift. Evening and weekend babysitting should also be agreed in advance and paid for on top of the basic salary for live-out staff.
