I’m Ella, a superyacht nanny with oodles of industry experience and I’m here to help you!
Specialising in onboard childcare, I love helping nannies and stews create the extra special moments for families on their yacht charter.
With so many elements taking a family charter from good to amazing – my mission is to work with you to create the perfect onboard nanny experience for the little ones, their parents and you!
Let me support you through coaching, templates, my guides pack and the range of bespoke support services I offer.
Perfect for nannies who want to raise their offering whilst supporting families onboard. With land based nannying a very different ball game to what is required onboard, I am here to help you become a pro yacht nanny (and one who keeps getting repeat bookings!)
The support I provide is bespoke to you, with a focus on exactly where you need the most guidance.
Developed for superyacht stews keen to learn how to create incredible experiences for family charters and the children who come aboard. Knowing only too well how it feels to have your first family charter, my guides, templates, bespoke treasure maps and consulting sessions are here to help.
Superyacht Nanny is the destination for nannies and stewardesses taking care of little people and family related charters.
Always happy to share my knowledge, experience, and insights, Superyacht Nanny has been formed to help you create those magical moments onboard and ensure you are prepped for every curve ball that might come your way.
Having helped a host of nannies and stews become confident with kids onboard, this is what they say:
The coaching was so in-depth, and Ella made sure to answer any questions that I had
Nanny Alice
She gave me so much useful information
Nanny BethElla clearly loves helping people and is so knowledgeable, she shares so much great advice and none of my questions felt too silly to ask
Nanny Georgia
Ella was patient, kind, and most importantly fun. She could be trusted to make sure the kids were not only safe on our trip but that they were enjoying their days.
Charter guest
As the Caribbean season is just around the corner, I wanted to share about my treasure hunt pack - it is jam packed with all you need.
There is so much out there to make charters fantastic for adults, and I really want little people to have an equally great time.
That’s why I have created my Ready to Play Scavenger Hunt!
What can you expect from it?
👀It has been tested onboard many times
👀It works best on yachts over 30m - ideally motor yachts but can easiliy be adapted
👀Editable so you can adapt to your cruising area and yacht name
Includes:
😎Treasure hunt
😎Clues for stews - so if little ones need a helping hand or you forgot where you put something!
😎Pirate playlist
😎Games ideas
😎Pirate name generator
😎and more!
All for just £8.40 and direct to your inbox!
What is not to love? Get yours today to make your treasure hunts onboard unforgettable!

Community call roundup!
I loved it, and so did everyone who joined. It was a lovely mix of familiar and new faces.
We discussed such interesting topics and themes, including:
- How to find work and how the recruitment landscape is evolving
- What clients want to see in childcarers - soft skills especially
- What happened over the summer
- What winter temp work looks like
- How the industry is evolving with so many UHNWs leaving the UK (due to politics)
- Where are the hot spots over Christmas
- Interesting interview techniques that are popping up in VIP role recruitment
- Plus quite a lot more that is just staying between those on the call.
I definitely left the call with my ‘ cup’ feeling full and that I really have got a fantastic tribe of brilliant industry experts around!

I think this is potentially the best compliment I have ever received!
I am more than happy to be nick named the Mary Poppins of yachting.
Not only do I undertake roles onboard, I also do quite a bit of temp / travel / ad hoc work ... but I guess I can`t be the Mary Poppins of everything 😂
What has been the best compliment you have received?

Hello - quite a few new people here, welcome! It felt like a good time to do a little round up.
I am the founder of Superyacht Nanny - the destination for all things childcare onboard.

❓️Where are the jobs?
It is now the end of the Med season so things are quiet, soon Xmas Caribbean work will start coming in but this season is much smaller than the Med and works a bit differently.
❓️What do you need to be a superyacht nanny?
At least 3 years of UHNW nanny experience as well as some travel nanny work.
❓️What qualifications do I need?
There are not set rules here but paediatric first aid, police background clearance (and nanny insurance for most agency work) are must - haves. ENG1 is handy but not imperative and PSA is not a get around to an STCW.
❓️Where are the jobs posted?
I post roles here, on the newsletter but a lot never make it here as I already know the right candidate for the role.
✨️If you would like individual support, please reach out to find out more about the coaching I offer.
✨️OR if you or your client need childcare support, please also get in touch. You can reach me via DM or ella@superyachtnanny.co
It is lovely to have you here, welcome 🙏 🤗

A change in seats! Having worked for racing drivers, I am not normally the one driving!
(Although I do a fair amount of driving with work - left hand and right hand drive, my car and their car, automatic and manual 😅)
Besides the Below Deck question, I think my other most frequently asked question is - do you know a lot of celebs?
The answer is - not really! Most of my clients are tech (Silicon Valley) or finance based. I of course, do get some celebs, but really, like a lot of other nannies, they don`t make up the base of my clientele.
That doesn`t mean I don`t work in high-profile locations, in beautiful settings, with fully staffed households (including close protection).
Does this surprise you?
