Bilingual Childcare in Paris — Certified English-Speaking Nannies
Looking for bilingual childcare in Paris provided by a qualified English-speaking nanny? Bloom Buddies is the go-to agency for Parisian families who want to give their children natural English immersion from the earliest age. State-approved, CAF-eligible, 50% tax credit.
Bilingual childcare in Paris meets a growing need: that of French, expat and international families who want their children to grow up with English as a natural second language. In Paris, where bilingual schools, international streams and families from around the world are concentrated in certain arrondissements, this demand has become structural. Bloom Buddies has built its offer precisely around this reality.
Unlike formal language classes, daily immersion with an English-speaking nanny allows the child to acquire the language naturally, without conscious effort. The child's brain absorbs linguistic structures in exactly the same way it learned French. Our nannies — native English speakers from the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and South Africa — are selected for their language level, their experience with children, and their ability to build a genuine bond of trust.
Bloom Buddies is a state-approved organisation, which gives you access to CAF subsidies (CMG) if your child is under 6, as well as a 50% tax credit on all amounts spent — regardless of your child's age. The effective cost of bilingual childcare with Bloom Buddies can be as low as €2.20/hour for a child under 3. Check our dedicated page on rates and financial aid for a precise estimate based on your situation.
Why choose bilingual childcare for your child?
Six good reasons to entrust your child to an English-speaking nanny
Proven cognitive development
Neuroscience research shows that bilingual children develop greater cognitive flexibility, stronger attention capacities, and more developed problem-solving skills. Early exposure to a second language literally restructures the brain in beneficial ways.
Immersion: the most effective method
Unlike traditional language classes, daily immersion with an English-speaking nanny allows the child to acquire the language naturally, without conscious effort. The child's brain absorbs linguistic structures in exactly the same way it learned its first language.
Real academic advantage
Children who have benefited from early immersion integrate more easily into bilingual classes, international streams and English-language schools. They approach English classes at school with an ease and confidence their peers simply don't have.
Paris, an international city
Paris has a unique concentration of international families, multinational organisations and diplomatic institutions. English is an essential professional and social skill. Giving your child this foundation from the earliest age is a lasting advantage.
Rigorously selected nannies
Every English-speaking nanny at Bloom Buddies goes through a complete selection process: qualification checks, English level test, in-depth interview, criminal background check and reference verification. Only the most qualified candidates join our network.
Accessible thanks to subsidies
Thanks to Bloom Buddies' approved-organisation status, you benefit from the CAF's CMG subsidy (up to €700.80/month for a child under 3) and the 50% tax credit. The real cost can be up to 8 times lower than the gross rate.

From what age is bilingual childcare effective?
Exposure to a second language is beneficial from birth. Neuroscience shows that babies' brains are particularly receptive to new phonetic structures before 12 months. Our English-speaking nannies adapt to each age group: nursery rhymes and sensory play for toddlers, educational games for 2-5 year olds, homework help and conversation for older children.
Are your nannies truly native English speakers?
Yes. We exclusively recruit nannies whose first language is English: UK, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa. Every candidate sits a language level test and an in-depth interview. We do not recruit candidates for whom English is a learned language.
Can I benefit from CAF subsidies for bilingual childcare?
Yes. Bloom Buddies is a state-approved organisation, which gives you access to the CAF's Complément de libre choix du Mode de Garde (CMG) for children under 6, as well as the 50% tax credit regardless of your child's age. We handle the administrative paperwork for you. See our detailed rates for a simulation.
