Abi at Rosebud Agency found us a wonderful night nanny with only two weeks' notice. The agency's exceptionally high standards and strict vetting process far exceed others, providing us with absolute p... See more

Abi at Rosebud has been nothing short of outstanding. We came to her as ‘first timers’ with a brief with unusal hours, and she walked us through how to make this an attractive role and what we could... See more

Nothing but positive things to say about Abi! After finding out I was being made redundant from my nanny position, and in a panic I knew Abi would be able to help! She helped reassure me, and within... See more

Abi's expertise and wealth of knowledge impressed us. Her advice was invaluable, and she had an intuitive grasp of the candidate profile we needed. We highly endorse her services.

Company details

  1. Childcare Agency

Written by the company

Rosebud Nanny Agency is a multi-award winning nanny agency matching nannies and families in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and South Cambridgeshire. Rosebud Nanny Agency is owned and run by Abigail Plested, a former nanny, and has been operating since early 2013. Abigail is passionate about children and dedicated to giving them the best start in life. She believes stability in their home life is the best way to achieve this. At Rosebud Nanny Agency, we strive to match each family with the nanny who best shares their ideas on bringing up their children. We believe consistency is key, and a harmonious relationship between children, parents and their nanny starts with this. We offer a professional yet personal service to every family, where you as the parent are in control. We aim to make the recruitment process stress-free for you – we are happy to answer general questions and enquiries, with no obligation. Nannies, like childminders and most nursery staff, hold childcare qualifications, paediatric first aid certificates and DBS (formally CRB) checks. They also often hold nanny insurance, although it’s not a requirement unless they are Ofsted registered (so you can use the tax free childcare scheme, or childcare vouchers towards the nannys cost) They are your employee, they come to your house for their working day, and solely care for your child/children. This means you would employ them through PAYE and have a contract of employment (both things I will guide you with!) Nannies look after all ages of children – it depends on your family! If you have a child at home and one at school, you have a complete childcare option rather than using nursery for one child, breakfast and after school club for the other, and muddling through school holidays in any fashion possible. Nannies working days and hours are set by you as the employer, so are often the most flexible form of childcare. You pay for the hours you need. Rosebud Nanny Agency covers Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Southern Cambridgeshire – St Albans, Harpenden, Welwyn Garden City, Hitchin, Watford, Rickmansworth, Berkhamsted, Biggleswade, Cambridge, St Neots, Amersham and many more. Please contact us today to discuss your childcare requirements.

Fantastic Nanny Agency

I would definitely recommend Abi from Rosebud Nanny Agency. She is very professional and thorough in her work to find the right fit for the nanny and the family. When I am looking for new employment I always turn to Abi for her professional help. I always find her very helpful and that she always does her best to help. Even when I am not looking for employment I find Abi very helpful and professional in giving me advice if/ when it is needed.

First Class!

We worked with Abi on our nanny search and she was a true professional providing a first class service.
She really takes the time to understand your family and your needs and then puts forward fantastic candidates, managing the whole process clearly and efficiently. I would highly recommend working with Abi and will certainly be using her again in the future.

Abi is a true professional when it comes to matching nannies and families together. Really listens to what the nanny wants out of a nannying job without feeling any pressure to take a job that may not be quite for you. Abi, really cares about the needs of the nanny. If I ever need a nannying job, a bit of babysitting or even temping Abi always finds me work without fail!! Always checks in to see how you are doing once you are settled into the job Abi placed you with. No question is ever too much, however big or small and you always feel reassured. I couldn’t recommend rosebud nannying agency more for either a nanny or a family, you will always be in safe hands!!

Abi has placed me with families in the past as a Nanny. Ensuring both parties are fully satisfied- parents and Nanny. She always answers any queries and finds the best advice available. She’s very supportive and takes her time listening to your needs. Highly recommended

Completely Trustworthy you will receive the best service

We have worked with Abi and Rosebud Nanny Agency for years. We still process payroll for some clients that Abi placed Nannies with in 2019 - Her commitment and dedication to placing the right Nanny with each family is a credit to her. Having her own family and being a working mother helps her know how important childcare needs are. We completely recommend her to anyone looking for childcare.

Best nanny agency around!

I will not use anyone else for my nanny and babysitting needs. Abi takes her time to find out what you want and then sets out to find the best people for you to interview.

Before we got a nanny we use Abi to find day and overnight babysitters. I was so happy with CV she sent over.

When we made the decision to get a nanny. She went above and beyond to support us though the contracts and payment set up. We now have a wonderful nanny and we couldn't be happier. Best decision we made.

I have a couple of holidays coming up that our nanny can't help with so I will be in touch with Abi again to help.
