Professional Superyacht Nanny Training – From Application to Excellence

The definitive training programme for childcare professionals in the world of luxury yachting.

Delivering exceptional childcare at sea requires far more than standard nannying. Working within UHNW family dynamics, adapting to yacht operations, navigating safety risks, and upholding a five-star service culture demands specialist skills.

This CPD-accredited training is the first and only course designed specifically for nannies, childcare professionals, and yacht crew who want to excel in this unique, high-expectation environment.

Whether you are transitioning from land-based nannying, seeking to elevate your skillset for elite travel roles, or preparing for your very first superyacht placement, this course gives you the knowledge, confidence, and professional polish required to thrive on board.

What You’ll Learn

✔ 1. Introduction

Understand the structure of the course and what it takes to succeed as a childcare professional in the luxury yacht industry.

✔ 2. What Is a Superyacht Nanny?

Gain clarity on the role, responsibilities, expectations, and how it differs from traditional nannying work.

✔ 3. Onboard Realities

Learn the practicalities of life at sea: long days, limited space, working around crew routines, managing privacy, and maintaining professionalism at all times.

✔ 4. How to Get the Job

Master the application process: CV preparation, interview readiness, what agencies look for, and how to position yourself as the ideal candidate for UHNW families and yacht captains.

✔ 5. Contracts & Payments

Understand industry norms, day rates, confidentiality considerations, contracts and boundaries.

✔ 6. Working Onboard — Part 1

Foundations of your role onboard: routines, communication, professionalism and crew integration.

✔ 7. Working Onboard — Part 2

Practical childcare delivery at sea: adapting routines, strategies, teamwork with crew, managing multi-environment transitions, and maintaining calm under pressure.

✔ 8. Safety

Your essential safety module: water safety, safety recommendations for you and your charge(s) deck rules, safety briefings and risk assessments for children onboard.

✔ 9. Provisioning

What is expected for you to pack, essentials for various ages, and how to ensure a well-equipped trip even with limited access to shops.

✔ 10. Activities

Creative, engaging, developmentally appropriate activities tailored to the constraints of yacht life.

✔ 11. Post-Trip Success

How to maintain professionalism, gather references, and secure repeat bookings through exceptional care.

Who This Course Is For

Freelance Nannies

Nannies Seeking to Elevate Their Career

Why This Training Stands Out

Unlike traditional nanny courses, this programme blends:

Real superyacht operations knowledge
Professional childcare expertise
UHNW service and etiquette standards
✈️ Travel-specific behaviour and routine strategies
Child safety awareness tailored to yachts
Practical tools you can implement immediately

It is the qualification that signals to agencies, captains, brokers, and UHNW families that you are prepared, competent, and yacht-ready.

Accreditation

This course is fully CPD-accredited, meaning you receive internationally recognised professional development hours and an official certificate upon passing the final assessment. For CPD accredited certification, a 70% pass mark must be achieved on the test.
