The nanny or babysitter visa covers full-time domestic childcare staff in a private household.
Choose Your Nanny Visa Sponsorship Option
Family Sponsorship (Direct)
Sponsor a nanny directly under your own UAE residence visa — you act as the legal employer and fulfil all requirements for domestic worker visas.
Tadbeer / Licensed Agency Sponsorship
Hire through a MOHRE-licensed domestic worker centre (e.g., Tadbeer) — the centre handles recruitment, visa processing and compliance.
Transfer Existing Visa
Transfer sponsorship if the nanny already has a valid domestic worker visa with another family or agency.
Step-by-Step Nanny Visa Process
Step 1: Check Eligibility & Requirements
The sponsor must be a UAE resident or citizen with a valid residence visa, meet income/ housing criteria (e.g., adequate accommodation for the nanny), and agree to sponsor under domestic worker rules.
Step 2: Apply for Domestic Worker Work Permit
Submit the initial work permit application through MOHRE or via a licensed agency (Tadbeer).
Step 3: Entry Permit & Arrival
Once approved, an entry permit is issued for the nanny to enter the UAE if she’s outside the country.
Step 4: Medical Fitness & Insurance
After arrival or status change, the nanny undergoes a medical fitness test and the sponsor must arrange health insurance.
Step 5: Emirates ID & Visa Stamping
Complete Emirates ID processing and get the residence visa stamped on the nanny’s passport — typically valid for 2 years.

Hiring trusted childcare
What sponsoring a childcare professional covers — Nanny Visa in Dubai
Family-sponsor eligibility review
We check your residency, income, and home against the standard for taking on live-in childcare, so the hire that your children depend on rests on a sponsorship that holds.
Childcare-role contract drafting
The contract is written specifically around full-time childcare duties, because a nanny's role is judged differently from general household help and the permit must reflect that.
Nanny fitness and identity prep
Her passport, photographs, and medical fitness clearance are arranged early so the person who will care for your children reaches the permit stage already cleared.
Childcare permit and entry
The nanny or babysitter permit is filed and her entry or status change managed so she can lawfully begin childcare in your home.
Nanny Emirates ID and stamping
Biometric enrolment and residence stamping give her settled legal standing rather than a temporary approval.
Continuity-of-care planning
We schedule renewals and any handover with the family's routine in mind, because a gap in a nanny's status is a gap in your childcare.
Ready to a live-in nanny
From family readiness to a live-in nanny
Sponsoring childcare staff puts the welfare of your children at the centre, so the steps prioritise getting the childcare role and her clearances right before anything is submitted.
01
Family-sponsor qualification
We verify your visa, earnings, and accommodation meet the conditions for hosting a live-in childcare professional.
02
Childcare scope definition
The full-time childcare responsibilities are set out clearly so the permit category matches the work she will actually do.
03
Nanny documents and fitness
Her papers are assembled and the medical fitness test booked so the health clearance is settled before the permit is lodged.
04
Processing the childcare permit
The childcare permit is processed and her entry or in-country status change carried through to approval.
05
Completing the nanny's residence
Emirates ID capture and visa stamping finalise her legal residence under your family's sponsorship.
The papers we gather
Papers a nanny sponsorship gathers
Family-sponsor passport and ID
Your identity and residency documents establish the family as the responsible sponsor.
Nanny passport and photographs
Her passport copy and recent images are collected to the permit specification.
Childcare employment contract
A contract naming full-time childcare duties is prepared, since the stated role drives the permit and its terms.
Nanny medical fitness certificate
The fitness result confirms she meets the health requirement for residence and close work with children.
Childcare accommodation proof
Evidence of suitable space shows your home can lawfully host a live-in childcare professional.
Income confirmation
Proof of earnings demonstrates you meet the salary condition, which can shift with the size of the household.
Time, cost & care gaps
Timing, the cost picture, and what holds a file up
How processing unfolds
With a clear childcare contract and a fit candidate the steps move steadily, and the nanny visa is issued for a one-to-two-year term that renews while you remain eligible.
- Permit and entry approval
- Medical fitness clearance
- Emirates ID and stamping
What sets the hiring cost
The figure follows the staff type, the validity term, and the medical and Emirates ID charges, with government and stamping fees on top, repeating at each short-cycle renewal.
- Childcare-staff category
- Visa duration chosen
- Medical, ID, and stamping fees
What delays a childcare file
Hold-ups arise from a contract that does not clearly state childcare duties, an outstanding medical, or income below the condition for the household size.
- Childcare role not clearly defined
- Pending medical fitness result
- Income below the household threshold
Keeping care covered
Where our nanny-visa support reaches
Full-time childcare role framing
We define the childcare scope precisely so the contract, the permit, and your family's expectations all line up.
Care-continuity stewardship
We manage renewals proactively so your children never face a stretch without their nanny's legal status in place.
Smooth staff transition
When a nanny moves on, we handle the change so a new childcare hire slots in without leaving the household uncovered.
Regulatory alignment
We keep the sponsorship compliant with household-staff rules so the family's arrangement stays sound over time.
