Travel Nanny

Our dedicated and adaptable travel nannies provide flexible, personalized care, fostering your child's natural curiosity and development no matter where life’s journey takes your family. Our caregivers are there to ensure your little ones are supported, engaged, and thriving every step of the way.

What makes a Travel Nanny special?

A travel nanny is special because they offer more than just childcare—they bring flexibility, adaptability, and a global mindset to the table. Unlike traditional nannies, travel nannies are comfortable navigating new environments and adjusting to the unique needs of a family on the move. Whether it’s seamlessly transitioning between time zones, managing the unexpected challenges of travel, or creating educational and engaging activities that fit the surroundings, a travel nanny excels in keeping children happy, safe, and entertained wherever they are.

Nannies for Vacations & Travel

A travel nanny’s role goes far beyond simply keeping kids busy during long flights or road trips. It’s about creating enriching experiences that open their eyes to new cultures, environments, and lessons that help them grow and understand both the world and themselves.

These unique opportunities allow children to engage with diverse perspectives, fostering curiosity and a deeper appreciation for the world around them. As a travel nanny, the goal is to guide and support these young minds, encouraging them to embrace new adventures with confidence while gaining valuable life skills that will stay with them long after the journey ends.

“All of our babysitters through Smart Sitting (Bastian) have been amazing. They are wonderful with our kids, incredibly responsible and all around great people. I was nervous about finding a babysitter prior to using Smart Sitting (Bastian). However the engagement has been well worth the money, given the service provided, time saved, and access to sitters I wouldn’t have had without them.”
