How It All Works
Consultation and Needs Assessment
Whether you’re a family looking for a nanny or a caregiver seeking the right family, we take the time to understand your needs, lifestyle and expectations. We want to ensure we connect the right people, so everyone is set up for a positive experience.
Background Checks
Your safety and peace of mind are our top priority. We perform in-depth background checks on all caregivers, including criminal record verification, reference checks, and reviewing past experience. We make sure both families and nannies feel confident in the trust they place in each other.
Finding The Right Match
Once we know what both families and nannies need we match you based on compatibility, skills, and experience. We clarify the role expectations, responsibilities, schedules and family dynamics to ensure that everyone is on the same page. This helps create a lasting, positive working relationship.
Ongoing Support & Feedback
We’re here for you long after the placement. We regularly check in with both families and caregivers to ensure everything is going smoothly. Your feedback is vital to us as we continue supporting your needs, adjusting where necessary, and ensuring both the family and nanny are thriving in their new routine.
