They are ok

Nanny (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 5 October 2023

Not the worst but not the best either. From a nanny perspective they were ok. But feel for the parents. It would have been easier to not have the agency

Lovely company to work with

Nanny/Babysitter (Current Employee) - London South East, Greater London - 11 July 2023

Been with Koru kids for a year now and have nothing bad to say. Families I’ve worked with are absolutely amazing and the fact that korukids takes care of all the hard parts makes my work life easier.

Decent student job

Nanny (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 10 July 2023

Your experience is honestly based on the family you work for. I have had 2 amazing families I have worked for and loved every minute. Your pay is calculated based on your age and experience and once I turned 21 I moved onto the highest bracket of pay which is still only £12 an hour, the lowest being around £8 . If you work privately you should be paid way more than this. Great for a student job but could be better with their pay

Have full control

Nanny (Current Employee) - London, OH - 20 May 2023

KoruKids is a very good place to join as a nanny. You have control of the families you want to apply to work for and you don’t have to sit around waiting for someone from the company to get back to you. If you don’t get a response from a family, you just move on until someone does respond.

Pros

Full control to who you work for

Cons

Pay policy could be better.

Positive experience

Nanny (Current Employee) - London - 14 May 2023

I have been working for Koru Kids for one and half years and the experience was amazing from day one. They provided really useful training process and I often get pay rise every six months. It is definitely run by people who are passionate about this environment and I always get support I need. The only one thing that I would like to see improved is bank holiday pay.Overall really nice experience with this company!

Pros

pay rise

Cons

bank holiday pay

Okay place to work

Nanny (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 20 April 2023

It really depends on the family you work for. I have had some lovely families whilst working there. The training is enjoyable, it’s great for students as most families want after school hours.

Okay

Nanny (Former Employee) - Croydon - 1 February 2023

A fine company to work for. Not a tone of support. You do get a pay rise every 6 months if you can make it that long. Overall you could luck out and get a great family
