What a live-in nanny arrangement means in Dubai

A live-in nanny lives in the family home and normally provides full-time childcare support. Families usually provide accommodation and meals in addition to salary. Live-in arrangements can work well for families needing early-morning, evening or flexible support, but working hours, rest periods and responsibilities must still be clearly agreed.
