Making the transition back easier
Supporting parents once they are back
Trusted in-home childcare for Keeping in Touch days, enabling parents to attend meetings, training and workplace events while their regular childcare may not yet have started.
Employer-funded childcare days or credits during the first weeks or months back at work, helping parents manage settling-in periods, gaps in regular childcare and the transition into new routines.
Once regular childcare is established, Nannovo continues to support employees when their usual arrangements unexpectedly fall through, helping prevent a childcare problem from becoming a working day problem.

Because leaving your baby with someone new is a big step
BUILDING IMPACT
Employers can tailor Returnity to their workforce, choosing the number of KIT Care or Return Care days or credits they want to provide and the period during which employees can access them.
Start with a Getting to Know You Day before leaving your baby in the nanny's care.
Where possible, book the same nanny for each KIT day, building familiarity and trust.
Meet first
A grandparent, family member or friend can be there too, with the nanny providing professional support.
Keep it familiar
Every Nannovo nanny is personally interviewed, carefully vetted and trained to our standards.
Extra reassurance
Personally selected by us
Because feeling ready to return to work starts with feeling confident about the care at home.
Flexible support. Trusted childcare.
HOW IT'S DELIVERED
Optional specialist support
Employers can also choose to complement childcare with access to trusted specialists who support parents through different aspects of the return to work transition.
Trusted, vetted care
At the heart of the service is Nannovo's trusted approach to childcare. We are not a childcare marketplace. Families are supported by carefully vetted nannies, with quality, safeguarding and personal service at the centre of everything we do.
