These are verified filipino nannies listed in Dubai, often chosen for childcare and all-round housekeeping. Each profile shows UAE, GCC and overall experience plus visa status.
To hire a filipino nanny in Dubai, filter the verified directory, shortlist two or three profiles, interview them and check references, agree the duties and salary in writing, then sponsor the visa yourself or through a licensed Tadbeer centre and start with a short trial.
Most Filipino helpers speak confident English, which is usually the first thing UAE families look for - instructions, school notes and phone messages rarely get lost.
Many have already done a contract or two in the Gulf or in Manila households, so local routines click into place quickly. They are a popular choice for childcare and all-round housekeeping, especially where parents want clear communication with young children.
Tip: Ask specifically about the ages of children they've handled - a Filipino nanny used to toddlers is a different hire from one used to teenagers.
A nanny's job is the children - their routine, safety, meals, play and learning. Unlike a maid who helps with kids, a nanny is focused on them first.
Agree the final list in writing. Every home defines the role a little differently.
Put these questions to each candidate - the answers tell you more than a CV does.
Filter the directory and pick two or three nanny profiles that fit your needs, location and budget.
Meet each candidate, ask about their experience, and contact previous employers before you decide.
Confirm duties, salary, day off and start date in writing, so expectations are clear from day one.
For a full-time nanny, sponsor the visa yourself as the employer through private sponsorship, or use a licensed Tadbeer centre to handle it for you.
Begin with a short trial period to make sure the nanny is the right fit before committing long term.
The work type decides the cover you get, the cost, and how the visa is handled. Start from how many hours you really need, and when.
The worker lives in your home and is on hand for most of the day. For a nanny, someone is there for early starts, the school run and bedtime - the main reason families with young children pick it. Plan for a private room, fair rest hours and a fixed weekly day off.
The worker comes in each day and heads home in the evening. For a nanny, you get set hours around school and keep your evenings to yourself. It can cost a little more per hour, but you keep your space to yourself.
The lightest, most flexible option. For a nanny, specific slots are covered - after school, date nights or busy weekends. Part-time and hourly help should be arranged through a licensed agency, never informally, so the worker stays legal and covered.
Dubai moves quickly, so strong profiles often get shortlisted fast. For a filipino nanny, that shapes whether live-in or live-out makes more sense, and how fast you should move on a strong profile.
Shortlist two or three profiles above, then interview before you decide.
