How old do you have to be to become a nanny?

18 is generally the minimum age that a family will accept for a
nanny candidate. Many nanny referral agencies will not accept the candidate under 20. If you are younger, you may
consider a year or two of work in a day care center, preschool, or similar environment to gain experience.
