Why We Care for the Carers: Supporting Our Nannies at ITAV

At ITAV Nanny Agency, we believe that when you take care of the carer, everyone thrives.
Nannies are often the unsung heroes in a child’s early life — offering stability, emotional warmth, learning opportunities, and support for busy families. And yet, so often, they’re undervalued, overworked, and left out of the conversation.

We’re here to change that.

🌿 Nannies Are at the Heart of What We Do

Behind every secure, happy child is a consistent, confident adult — someone who is emotionally available, calm, and connected. That’s why at ITAV, we go beyond recruitment. We nurture and uplift our nannies through real, ongoing support.

✨ How We Support Our Nannies

1. Community Check-Ins & Peer Support
Every nanny placed through ITAV is welcomed into a community, not just a contract. Through WhatsApp groups, monthly check-ins, and informal meetups, our nannies feel seen, supported, and never alone.

2. Emotional & Well-being Touchpoints

We understand how emotionally demanding childcare can be. We offer resources and check-ins that go beyond logistics — from burnout awareness to gentle mindfulness reminders because well-being is not optional.

3.Fair Pay and Advocacy

We don’t shy away from hard conversations. We advocate for fair, transparent pay and clear communication between families and nannies. When nannies feel respected, they’re empowered to give their best.

🧘‍♀ Why It Matters

When nannies are cared for:

  • Children experience consistent, attuned care
  • Families benefit from loyal, committed carers
  • Our communities grow stronger, one relationship at a time

Caring for the carers is not a luxury — it’s a responsibility. At ITAV, it’s part of our DNA.

🧡 From Our Founder

“I know what it feels like to give your all as a carer and still feel invisible. That’s why ITAV centres the nanny, not just the paperwork. If our carers are grounded, children will flourish.”

— Sarah Seisay, Founder

When we think of a nanny’s role, we often picture feeding, bathing, and bedtime stories. But nannies do so much more—they play a vital role in nurturing a child’s social and emotional growth. In those early years, children learn how to express feelings, make friends, and build confidence. The right nanny provides a safe, loving space for these skills to flourish.

At ITAV Nanny Agency, we believe in one simple truth: It takes a village to raise a child — and we’re here to be part of that village with you. Founded by Sarah Seisay, a trusted and experienced childminder and community advocate, ITAV was born from a deep understanding of what families really need: care they can trust, relationships that feel personal, and support that goes beyond the basics.
