Written by Fanny Di Domenicantonio,Director, Fox & Cubs Nanny & Private Staff Agency
We are proud to share that Fox & Cubs Nanny & Private Staff Agency was named as a Finalist at the British HR Awards 2026 one of the most respected recognitions in the UK for organisations that take their people, their culture, and their commitment to excellence seriously.
Being shortlisted from a record 474 entries submitted by organisations across the UK submitted by organisations across the UK from start-ups to global companies means a great deal to us. Not because awards are what we build for, but because this one reflects something we genuinely care about: how we work, not just what we deliver.
What this recognition reflects
At Fox & Cubs, we place exceptional childcare and household professionals with families across London and internationally. But the way we do that the care we take with every candidate, the relationships we build with every family, the standard we hold ourselves to as an agency and as an employer is what this recognition speaks to. The British HR Awards celebrates the teams and individuals who are genuinely committed to a world-class people experience. For a nanny and private staff agency like Fox & Cubs, being considered in that company is something we do not take lightly.
Our people are our agency
Fox & Cubs is a team of seven. Every placement we make, every family we support, every candidate we represent it all comes back to the people on our team and how seriously they take their work.
We have always believed that building a great agency starts with building a great team. People who are genuinely invested in the families and professionals they work with. People who communicate clearly, follow through, and care about the outcome long after a placement is confirmed. That approach is what we were recognised for, and it is what we will keep building on.
Looking Ahead
In 2026, Fox & Cubs was also voted Best Nanny Agency in the UK at the UK Nanny Awards — voted for by the families, nannies, and childcare professionals who work with us every day. We were also recognised at the Lux Life Parents and Baby Awards in two categories: Best Premium Childcare and Private Staffing and Family Support Excellence. To be recognised by our own community, by the wider HR and people industry, and by a publication dedicated to premium family life in the same year feels significant.
