Nanny Assessment and Coaching
Nanny Assessment and Coaching
The aim is for the whole household to care for the baby in one consistent way, not to catch anyone out or score anyone. The nurse tells everyone together what is already being done well and what could be adjusted.
Where to find it
Nanny Assessment and Coaching is an add-on that can only be added when you book a main package.
What this service helps with
A DekNurse nurse observes your baby's care at home on an ordinary day, then talks it through with the family and nanny so everyone cares the same way.
Who it is for
- Families who already have a nanny or helper and want to review the approach together
- Households that have just hired a nanny and want to start off aligned
- Parents going back to work who will be leaving the baby mainly with a caregiver
What this service helps you sort out
- Being out of the house during the day, so never seeing how the care really goes
- Wanting to change something but not knowing how to raise it without hurting feelings
- A nanny's approach from a previous household not matching what this family wants
What it usually covers
- Observing the real care at home during an ordinary part of the day
- A review of safe sleep setup, feeding and breast milk storage, and hygiene
- Looking at how the baby's cues are read and how prepared the household is for the unexpected
- A summary given to the family and the nanny together, with steps you can act on
The actual scope is shaped around each family's situation and is agreed with the team before care begins.

Frequently asked questions
Can DekNurse assess our nanny?
Yes. The nurse observes the real care at home, then talks it through with the family and the nanny together. This is an assessment with coaching. It is not a certificate of a person's quality.
Is it a pass-or-fail test?
No. Nobody is scored and no caregiver is judged as good or bad. What you get is a picture of how the care is going today and what the household can adjust together.
Does DekNurse find nannies for families?
No, the assessment does not find or place nannies, and it works with the nanny or helper your family already has. If you would like a nanny to help during your package, you can add one by the month with Complete Care 14, and if you would like a caregiver to be trained properly, there is a Training for Grandparents and Helpers add-on.
How should the nanny prepare?
No special preparation. It should be an ordinary day with the care done the way it is normally done. An ordinary day is what helps, not one arranged in advance.
Not sure which service to start with?
