Meet our nannies.
We’re excited to introduce a few of our highly qualified candidates. They’ve completed our rigorous screening process and are looking forward to joining their new nanny family.
To make your search as seamless as possible, we’ve structured our placement fee as a flat rate rather than a percentage of annual compensation. We’ve designed it this way for a few important reasons:
- It allows us to remain a neutral third party during salary discussions.
- Families know their total investment from the very beginning of the process.
- It ensures families can direct more of their resources toward creating a strong compensation package for their new nanny.
We look forward to helping you conduct a successful search for your new nanny!
