What nanny employers actually look for
Nanny roles are among the most relationship-driven hires there are. Your resume won't get you the job — but it will get you the interview. Make every line count.
The most common mistake is listing responsibilities instead of outcomes. Every bullet on your resume should answer the question: "So what?" — what was the result, the scale, the impact?
Care & Development
- Infant & toddler care (0–5 years)
- School-age support & homework help
- Educational activity planning
- Routine & sleep schedule management
Safety & Credentials
- Paediatric First Aid & CPR (current)
- Child safeguarding training
- DBS / CRB checked
- Full clean driving licence (if applicable)
Strong resume bullets that get callbacks
These examples follow the Action → Context → Outcome structure. They're specific enough to be credible and quantified where it matters.
When you generate your resume with ResumeSync, your actual experience — not these examples — is used to build bullets in the same structure, matched to the specific job you're applying for.
Common mistakes to avoid
These are the patterns that send nanny applications straight to the reject pile.
Not stating the ages of the children you have experience with — families match on this.
Forgetting to mention your DBS check status — it's often a hard filter.
Vague "loves children" language instead of evidence of structured care.
Not referencing driving licence if the role involves school runs or activities.
