Meet The Team
Julia Harris
Julia Harris is one of the most trusted and respected names in childcare recruitment, with thousands of successful placements to her name. Born and bred in London, Julia is well versed in exactly what a busy metropolitan family requires from a childcare recruitment company. A mother of two fabulous boys, Julia’s yardstick for placing applicants is whether she would feel comfortable leaving her own children with them. Only if the answer is yes, does she proceed.
>Julia first set up North West Childcare, based in Cheshire, when she was disappointed with the quality of agency she encountered in her own search for a nanny for her sons. She went on to launch The Housekeeper Company, which specialises in providing foreign housekeepers to exacting clients nationwide. Following widespread demand from delighted Housekeeper Company clients across London, Julia subsequently launched the Childcare Recruitment Company, which has gone on to emulate the success of its northern counterpart.
Julia is a passionate advocate for families’ rights to quality and flexible childcare and is very involved in the REC childcare group and sits on the CACHE operations committee, helping to advise on what content should feature in the childcare qualifications. She has advised Granada Media on a Coronation Street storyline involving nannies and her expert views on childcare have featured in the national press.
