Kensington Nannies

Kensington Nannies, London’s longest established nanny agents, is a privately owned company, founded when there were just a handful of nanny agencies in London. Having been run by the same consultants for over 38 years, Kensington Nannies has abided by ethics of old and adapted to a new generation of both parents and Nannies maintaining its excellent reputation throughout.

Kensington Nannies (Nannies Kensington) enjoys the reputation of being the "Grand Dame" of nanny agencies, serving the British and international Nanny market.
