A pair of Norland Nannies have shared insight into their life one year after graduation.

Two unnamed twin sisters, who graduated from the prestigious college in Bath last year, have revealed their newfound luxury lifestyle as travel au pairs.

Norland college trains the famous uniform-wearing Norland Nannies loved by celebrities and royalty. The 130-year-old institution is the smallest undergraduate degree awarding institution in the UK.

Graduates of the four-year course cater to the super-elite including Prince William and Kate Middleton's Norland Nanny, Maria Borallo, who has been with the family since Prince George, now ten, was eight months old.

Now, two Norland nannies have taken to TikTok to share snippets of their lavish lifestyle while nannying for glamorous families around the world, and viewers are in awe.

Throughout the course, students learn skills that are more often associated with James Bond than with Mary Poppins, including getaway driving and martial arts.

However, the Norwood twins seem to have enjoyed a luxurious year, rather than fending off kidnappers or paparazzi.

Taking to TikTok, the twins shared a series of clips that reflect their life after completing the four-year course.

The graduates proudly posed in their Norland uniforms - distinct brown dresses with white collars and gloves, alongside the caption: 'My life since graduating Norland College (one year ago)'.

First, the twins said that they had uprooted from the UK to live in the glamorous Beverely Hills, while sharing a clip of the famous palm-tree lined road near Sunset Boulevard.

Next, the nannies revealed that they have 'worked on multiple superyachts' and 'flew on loads of private jets'.

In addition to luxury transportation, the sisters have experienced the 'most amazing ceiling view in Rome' as well as travelling to Morocco and going skiing.

The graduates have also been able to travel around Italy and visited a pink sand beach, perhaps the famous Italian Spiaggia Rosa beach.

It comes after the iconic institution was given the power to award undergraduate degrees in 2019, just before the pandemic. It is now the smallest undergraduate degree awarding institution in the UK. 

Alongside a BA (Hons) in Early Years Development and Learning, graduates receive the prestigious Norland diploma and spend a year working on the job before officially graduating. 

NORLAND NANNIES: A HISTORY 

Norland College, founded in 1892 by Emily Ward, is a leading provider of childcare training. 

Emily Ward introduced a uniform so Norland graduates would be recognised as professionals and not mistaken for housemaids and it is still a strong part of the college's tradition.

The founder focused her training on the principles of Friedrich Froebel, the German educationalist who developed the 'kindergarten system'.

Its Early Childhood Studies course concentrates on numerous aspects of childhood.

Students study elements of social science, psychology, child health, history, literature and education.

It also trains its students - known as 'Norlanders' when they graduate - how to work with families, develop a child's math skills and become a whizz in the kitchen and teach a child not only how to cook, but how to cook healthy meals.

Along with the traditional skills of cooking, sewing and first aid, new subjects on the curriculum include Taekwondo, self defence, skidpan driving - and escaping from paparazzi. 

The 141st cohort of Norland Nanny students - known as Set 41 - took their place in history on April 1 last year. 

On the occasion, Dr Janet Rose, Principal of Norland, said: 'We're incredibly proud to see our very first students graduate with a Norland-awarded degree.

'This event represents a significant milestone in our 130-year history and demonstrates how Norland remains at the forefront of raising the status and value of the childcare profession.

'Norland's unparalleled reputation in the field of early years is now matched with the privilege and responsibilities of taught degree awarding powers.'

Norland also unveiled its new coat of arms at the historic event. The heraldic design features a golden guardian owl sitting in its nest of three owlets.

Over 150 students from sets 41 and 42 attended the Norland degree ceremonies at the Celtic Manor International Conference Centre.

Norland students complete two courses over four years full-time: a three-year full-time BA (Hons) in Early Years Development and Learning alongside the prestigious Norland diploma. 

Plus a one-year full-time probationary nanny position, the Newly Qualified Nanny (NQN) year, which is salaried.

The NQN year is the final module of the diploma and all students must successfully complete not only their degree but also each element of the Norland diploma to use the professional title 'Norlander' or 'Norland Nanny', as the school's fully qualified graduates are known.

The degree programme is unique to Norland. 

It draws on approaches from many disciplines including psychology, child health, philosophy, social sciences, literature and education. 

Modules include Safeguarding and Child Protection, Promoting Health and Wellbeing, Making Sense of Children's Behaviour and Working with Families and Communities. 

Running alongside the degree, and for a fourth year following completion of the degree, is the prestigious Norland diploma, which prepares students for working with families and the practical aspects of the care, learning and development of children in the early years. 

Modules include Communication in Practice, Food and Nutrition, Health and Wellbeing, Play and Learning, and Sewing.

Students learn additional professional skills required to work with children, including good timekeeping, team-working, excellent communication skills and respect for and love of children.

Students spend around 50 per cent of their time (a minimum of 1,216 placement hours) at Norland on placement in a variety of early years settings - including nursery, school, hospital, special needs school settings and as a daily and live-in nanny.

Students gain additional skills and experience as part of Norland's value-added curriculum.

Subjects include: Self-defence classes, Security and Cyber-security training, Emotion Coaching, Sleep and Behaviour, Skid Pan driving, Baby Massage, Drama at The Egg Theatre, and many more.
