Visiting Canada for Holidays for 2 weeks - can I bring my nanny?

[Andrev]

Hi we are visiting Canada this summer for holidays for 2 weeks. We have three very small children and would like to bring our nanny. Does anyone know if this is possible? We live in the UK, our nanny is Philipino and has work permit for the UK. Would it only be a tourist visa?

1. Yes, although as a Filipino national she will require a TRV (visitor visa) see: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/apply-how.asp

Thanks PMM - there won't be any issues because technically she is 'working' for those two weeks helping out with the kids etc.

No issues about her work as she won't be working for a Canadian family
