Finally an answer to the long distance flight for parents traveling with children. Nanny in the Clouds is a service to help connect parents and nannies or babysitters who are traveling on the same flight. Today it's difficult to find a nanny who is traveling to the same place, this business focuses on partnering airlines that can inform passengers there is an extra set of hands available if they are interested. Some common duties may be clearing security, carrying luggage, and taking care of children during the flight and other anything else that may come up.
The request for help is high on flights from the US to the UK and Australia. The cost to register to the site, nannyintheclouds.com is $10 plus the hourly rate for the nanny. It's certainly a luxury service, but the fact is it's a beneficial service for both the nannies and the families who are traveling, that will potentially lead to a long term work proposition. Some questions to ask would be for more information on the nanny's background and any references, as well as prices and what she has in mind to entertain children while flying. Also, will the airline place both your seats next to one another?
