I would suggest that you get started now by babysitting for children in your community and/or volunteering at a church or childcare center. Then after you graduate high school pursue a college level program in becoming a nanny (there are many such well thought of programs in the UK) or get a degree in child development. Remember always that when you are a nanny you are called on to care for and be considerate of the entire family. Best wishes, The Nanny Doctor
