For families whose lives don’t stay in one place, and don’t want childcare to suffer for it.
Washington families travel differently than most. Between diplomatic postings, campaign schedules, congressional recesses, and executives who split time between DC and a second city, “home” is often a moving target. A travel nanny keeps a child’s routine intact through all of it, so the disruption belongs to the itinerary, not the kid.
A travel nanny accompanies your family, whether that’s a two-week trip or a life that regularly moves between cities and countries. That requires more than flexibility. It requires a caregiver comfortable navigating international logistics, adapting to unfamiliar environments quickly, and maintaining a child’s routine even when everything else around them is in motion.
For Washington’s diplomatic and internationally-connected families in particular, this often overlaps with discretion requirements similar to household staffing: a travel nanny may be present during sensitive work travel or high-visibility trips, and needs to carry the same judgment a family expects at home.
We’ve GotYour Back
Families who travel frequently usually describe the same fear before hiring a travel nanny: losing routine entirely once they leave home. Here’s what changes.
→ A caregiver who travels internationally with confidence, not for the first time.
→ Consistency in feeding, sleep, and daily routine, regardless of location.
→ Comfortable navigating unfamiliar environments, time zones, and logistics.
→ Discretion for diplomatic, political, or high-visibility travel.
→ Available for both short trips and ongoing, multi-city family life.
Some Of Our Responsibilities Include:
International & Domestic Travel Care
Routine Consistency On the Road
Time Zone & Schedule Adaptation
Discretion for High-Visibility Travel
Multi-City Family Support
Additional Offerings
Many families pair a travel nanny with a long-term nanny or household manager at home, so care stays consistent whether the family is in DC or on the road.
Trusted by families who value professionalism, discretion, and a sense of calm at home.
The Pink Nannies team impressed me at the 'Paint The Town Pink' event in Silver Spring by hosting an open panel and answering the tough questions. In a city where conversations often feel transactional, the team showed genuine interest in everyone who came. Allison called me after the event and asked thoughtful follow-up questions (...)
My husband and I recently relocated to the DC area for his job and we left a nanny we loved! I was nervous about finding someone new in a new city but thanks to Pink Nannies we have found the most amazing nanny! (...)
Pink Nannies is such a wonderful agency. They care a lot about their nannies and they’re very responsive. If you need full time, part-time, or a temporary position/work they are sure to find you just what you need. I’ve met a wonderful family through them that I still keep in touch with. (...)
I cannot say enough good things about this agency. My daughter is neurodivergent with a PDA profile - a very tough customer! They were able to find not one, but multiple matches of neuroaffirnative candidates in a very short timeline. (...)
Yes. Our travel nannies are experienced international travelers who are comfortable with the logistics of crossing borders, adapting to unfamiliar environments and time zones, and keeping a child’s feeding, sleep, and daily routine consistent wherever the family lands. For Washington’s diplomatic and internationally connected families, they also bring the discretion needed during sensitive work travel and high-visibility trips. Whether it’s a two-week trip or a life split between countries, tell us your destinations and schedule and we’ll match you with a nanny who fits.
As early as you can. We recommend contacting us as soon as your travel dates are set, ideally several weeks before departure, and earlier for international trips, long stays, or peak travel periods like holidays and summer. More lead time gives us room to find the right match and gives your nanny time to prepare for the itinerary. If your trip is coming up soon, contact us anyway and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Yes. Many families hire one nanny for both: she travels with you and works as your regular nanny when you’re in DC, so your child has one consistent caregiver in both settings. Some families instead pair a travel nanny with a long-term nanny or household manager at home. Tell us how often you travel and we’ll recommend the right setup.
