Nanny and Family Studies
Nanny, Child, and Family Studies
We, in the Child Development and Education department are proud to offer three new courses specific to the needs of nannies and families.
Paired with existing Child Development courses, we look to raise the quality of care provided by nannies in private homes. We believe this education will allow professional nannies to advocate for themselves by achieving formal education that hasn’t been previously offered.
Our curriculum was created in collaboration with The Institute for Families and Nannies (TIFFAN).
