Whether a seasoned nanny or a fresh-faced nanny out of college, all of our applicants go through a highly discriminating selection and screening process that includes a background check, thorough reference review, and more. This process is done meticulously in order to guarantee a high probability of success. All nannies are instructed to maintain the utmost discretion and confidentiality, and must be willing to sign a confidentiality agreement, if desired.
Full-Time Nannies
Full-Time Nannies are professionals who fit seamlessly into your family life to provide childcare, household assistance, and all-around family support. Full-time nannies work 40+ hours per week, depending on your family’s needs. This includes live-in and live-out nannies. Depending on the job, number of children, and duties required, most of our professional nannies typically start at $25-35+ per hour gross via payroll, and in accordance with your state’s tax laws. We charge a one-time placement fee of 18% of the nanny’s annual gross salary.
Nannies for Special Needs Children
Nannies for special needs children possess additional experience and/or training to work with children with challenges such as Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, and other special needs. We work with each family to determine the best-specialized skills a nanny must possess to care for their child. Nannies' rates vary. We charge a one-time fee of 20% of the nanny’s annual gross salary.
Newborn Care Specialists
Newborn Care Specialists care for the newest of family members, supporting parents during the transition. These specialty nannies provide overnight care, 12 or 24-hour care, or whatever is needed during the infant’s first year. These specialists typically charge between $35-55/hr+, depending on experience. We charge 25% of the newborn care specialist's estimated gross salary.
Temporary Nannies
Whether it be seasonal care (i.e. a Summer Nanny, hotel, or vacation care) or a fill-in for your permanent nanny, we will provide you with the best backup care for your children. Temporary Nannies provide the same customized care and household support for an agreed-upon time frame, of less than 1 year. We charge a one-time fee of 35% of the nanny's gross salary.

We charge a one-time fee of 18% of the candidate's annual gross salary.
Nanny Share
Are you looking for quality care at half the cost? Find another family to employ one nanny with and split the cost of their salary along with the agency placement fee. Typically, nanny shares are two families, often in the same neighborhood or with children in the same age range. The nanny can care for your children under one roof, or split time between each home. Enjoy all the benefits of having a nanny with convenient in-home, quality childcare you can afford! We charge a one-time fee of 18% of the nanny’s annual gross salary, which can be split between both families. You can search for a family match here.
Private Educators & Tutors
Full or Part-time Private Educators and Tutors typically have a Master of Education degree and are able to provide support with virtual learning, and private tutoring. If they are licensed in your state, they can teach your children as part of your micro-pod or homeschool curriculum. Depending on your needs, most private educators start around $50+/hr and up, depending on their level of education and experience.
Special Event Nannies
Event Nannies provide childcare for corporate events, weddings, birthday parties, and more. Clients pay a fee to access our professional, screened nannies. Booking fees vary from $500-1500, depending on the event. With 72-hours' notice, we schedule and book the event's nannies, given the required skills and criteria. Each nanny is paid $50/hr. for his/her time at the event. There is a booking minimum of four hours per event.
