What is a Nanny Groom?
A nanny groom is a specialised type of nanny that not only provides childcare services, but is also fully experienced and therefore able to assist with the general care of horses. They are an incredibly useful addition to your household if you have a busy family life and require an extra pair of hands to help with domestic duties, organisation of your children’s schedules and the care of your horse
Nanny Groom Duties
The everyday duties of a nanny groom involves shared care of the children, transporting them to and from school, planning, cooking and helping out at meal times and the washing and ironing of children's clothing and bedding.
In addition to this, a nanny groom will assist in the exercising and general care of any horses, including schooling and lunging. This can be amazing for a family that requires very specific help around the house that not only involves children and domestic duties, but also involves taking care of horses too.

Of course, this list can be tailored to fit you and your family.
