Lifejackets, Jet Skis & Fireworks on the Helipad — My Chat with Adventure Nannies

I recently joined Adventure Nannies On Air to talk about all things Superyacht Nanny — from managing safety at sea to balancing luxury service with childcare in one of the most unique environments in the world.

During the conversation, we explored what it really means to work with families on board — and why this role is about so much more than just travel and sunshine.
A few highlights from our chat:
Safety first, always. Why lifejackets are non-negotiable, and how nannies can stay calm and confident when routines are constantly changing at sea.
The in-between role. How to find your place on board when you’re not quite crew, not quite guest — but absolutely essential.
The “sizzle, not sausage” mindset. What sets you apart as a professional in luxury family care and why presentation, discretion, and creativity matter.
Unforgettable moments. From fireworks on the helipad to treasure hunts in the Med — it’s a job that takes childcare to extraordinary places.
For anyone curious about life on board or looking to transition into superyacht childcare, this episode is a great introduction to the realities, responsibilities, and rewards of the role.
