What a live-out nanny arrangement means in Abu Dhabi

A live-out nanny lives separately and commutes for agreed shifts. For Abu Dhabi households, location and travel time matter as much as experience. Confirm that a candidate is available in Abu Dhabi, willing to relocate, or open to roles across the UAE before you interview.
