Sugar & Spice Nanny Training offers childcare courses for nannies and childminders. Our primary focus is on empowering Domestic Workers working in family homes as nannies and house keepers with all the essential knowledge, practical skills and real confidence they need to take care of children and babies from birth upwards.
Our nanny training course has been running since January 2003 and in this time we have given more than 1000 nannies the confidence and essential tools to take care of and stimulate the babies and young children they love and are responsible for - both at work and in their communities.
Our nanny course content includes:
- Routines and time management
- First Aid, including CPR and Mouth to Mouth
- Childproofing your home and safety indoors and outdoors
- Hygiene best practices
- Avoiding the transmission of HIV and TB
- Nutrition and Menu Planning
- Developmental Milestones and age appropriate games and activities
- Basic Baby Massage
(Please see nanny training detailed information)
In addition to our nanny training course, we offer five supporting short courses.
First Aid: Teaching nannies how to deal with emergencies in order to stabilize the child and get help. Nannies who attend this module are credited with it against the Sugar and Spice nanny training course if they register within 6 months.
