Nanny in Madrid
Nannies for families in Madrid
Madrid has one of the highest demands for nannies anywhere in Spain: dual-career households, international families tied to the British, French and American schools, and parents who want far more than supervision.They want stimulation, languages and consistent routines for their children, without having to sift through dozens of CVs themselves.
Needs vary widely from one family to another: from caring for a newborn to looking after several school-age siblings, with routines, languages and, at times, the Montessori method as the common thread. Some prioritise native English or French, others need genuine experience with babies, and many simply want consistency in hours and habits. Every household is different, which is why we never just forward a CV.
At Maids & Co we screen nannies for Madrid with an in-depth interview, direct reference checks and proof of training (Montessori, first aid and newborn experience where relevant). We send you the first matching profiles in under 3 hours, registered with Social Security from day one, and you pay nothing until you hire.

Coverage in Madrid
Areas we cover
Demand for nannies in Madrid clusters along the north-east axis and the north-west corridor. In Salamanca, Chamberí and Chamartín, families typically need a live-out nanny to cover the school run, after-school clubs and afternoons, often with homework support and hours that shift every term.
In the developments — La Moraleja, La Finca, Puerta de Hierro, Conde de Orgaz, Aravaca and Pozuelo de Alarcón — homes are larger, there are several children, and families look for live-in or full-time nannies, often bilingual given how close the international schools are. We know each area and tailor the profile to the logistics of each home: own car, split shifts and family travel.

Can you find bilingual nannies in Madrid?
Yes — it is our most requested profile in Madrid: nannies who speak English or French with the children, many with experience in the north-west's international schools (Pozuelo, Aravaca, La Moraleja). We test the real level in the interview, not just on the CV, and we also select profiles with Montessori training and first aid.
Live-in, live-out or by the hour in Madrid?
It depends on your home: a flat in Salamanca or Chamberí usually suits a live-out nanny for school hours and afternoons, while homes in the developments call for a live-in or full-time nanny. We advise you based on the number of children, the hours and the space available. All with a contract and Social Security registration from day one.
How quickly do you present nannies in Madrid?
We send the first matching profiles, with their training and verified references, in under 3 hours; very specific profiles can take up to 48 hours. You pay nothing until you hire: our fee is one month's salary plus VAT, and it includes 2 trial days with the candidate before you confirm the hire. On top of that, every placement comes with a 6-month guarantee and a replacement if the nanny is not the right fit.
