Live-in, live-out, short-term and babysitting positions with private families across Monte-Carlo, La Condamine, Fontvieille and Larvotto.
For Nannies, Governesses & Maternity Nurses
Build your career in Monaco with Lumière
Monaco is one of the most sought-after places in the world to work as a private nanny, governess or maternity nurse. Families here value discretion, multilingual care and genuine professionalism. As a French Riviera-based agency founded by a working career nanny, Lumière recruits for declared, contract-based roles, never cash-in-hand arrangements.
We recruit across Monte-Carlo, La Condamine, Fontvieille, Larvotto, and the bordering communes of Cap d'Ail, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin and Beausoleil. Registering is free for candidates.
Roles We Recruit For
Live-In Nanny
Full-time, accommodation-included roles with one family.
Live-Out / Daily Nanny
Day roles returning to your own home each evening.

Education-led care and learning for school-age children.

Pay & Conditions in Monaco
Indicative NET ranges for declared, contract-based roles. Actual pay reflects your experience, languages and qualifications.
Placements in Monaco and neighbouring France are fully declared (URSSAF / Monaco social security, CCN3239 where relevant), with proper employment contracts, protecting you as a candidate.
What Families in Monaco Look For
- Verifiable childcare references and a clean background / police check (and DBS where applicable)
- A declared, contract-based approach, we do not place cash-in-hand roles
- Strong swimming is often essential; a driving licence is frequently preferred
- Childcare qualifications (NNEB, CACHE, Norland, Montessori or equivalent) valued for senior roles
English and French are the most in-demand; Russian, Italian, German or Arabic are a strong advantage with Monaco's international families.
