Festival Nannies

the best addition to festivals with the family

Festivals with the kids are incredible and yet they can be even better when you also get to…

  • have some child free, adult only time

  • stay out as late as you like, not worrying about bed time or pulling the very cool (yet slightly pesky) cart around

  • see the acts you really want to see

This is where our Festival Nannies come in. Trained, vetted and experienced they are able to work with children of all ages from newborn upwards and with all types of additional needs. They are typically on site and available from Friday - Sunday, although it varies from festival to festival.

About Our Festival Nannies

We handpick our team of Festival Nannies to ensure we have the best team onsite. All of our Festival Nannies have:

  • lots of experience, worked with us before, completed our Junior Nanny Training Course or our JNC Level 2 Course (OR all of the above!)

  • an in date Enhanced DBS (criminal record check)

  • a current 12 hour paediatric first aid certificate

Our staffing team allocate our Festival Nannies to each booking depending on their experience and the ages of the child(ren) in the booking.

About Freckles

Simply put, we are the Festival Nanny company. And we have one objective… to ensure our families (that’s parents and their children) have the best time possible.

At all festivals we have a tent jam packed filled with toys, arts & crafts, blankets, teddies, games, fancy dress and so much more. It’s a space:

  • for the children to hang out in

  • that feels familiar and safe

  • that allows them to relax and reset so that they’re ready to either go again or go to bed!

From artists to producers and single festival going families to large groups of friends we’ve done it all - to date there is no request we’ve not been able to handle. We have a huge breadth of specialisms within our Festival Nanny team and are able to work with all ages and all needs. From newborns through to teenagers, from Downs to Autism and feeding tubes to non verbal - we’ve got this.

We’ve been working at Festivals since the summer of 2019 and each year we are better than the year before. We constantly innovate and improve our service. Tweak our process to simplify it for our parents and adjust our hours and bespoke services so that we can make your festival experience, the best experience and 2023 will be no different.
