Ever since it was announced that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are expecting their first child — Meghan's due sometime in Spring 2019! — there's been an overwhelming amount of buzz about everything from the royal baby's potential name to what the baby's official title will be.

While the couple has been travelling together in Australia, the rest of the world has been wondering about what the Duchess and Duke of Sussex's childcare will look like come the Spring, and rumour has it a nanny may have been hired for the job!

Until it's officially confirmed, check out the possible contenders for the royal baby's nanny.

According to a few swirling rumours, Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, began taking childcare classes, including CPR and first aid. Although anyone that will be around a baby often, like a grandparent, should ideally be versed in CPR and first aid (especially infant CPR), it's possible that Doria would be taking the courses as a potential nanny for the baby. Only time will tell, but considering Meghan and her mom's close relationship, we wouldn't be surprised either way if Doria played a huge part in caring for her grandchild.

Connie Simpson, or "Nanny Connie," is rumoured to have been recommended to the Duke and Duchess by none other than George and Amal Clooney, who hired Connie when their twins were born. The celebrity nanny has been hired by other famous parents, like Justin Timberlake and Emily Blunt, and has written a book full of childcare tips, The Nanny Connie Way. However, Connie actually came out of retirement to aid the Clooneys, so there's no saying if she'd be willing to do so again for Prince Harry and Meghan. But if the rumours are true, the royal baby will be in very capable hands!
