When you want help...

Learn more below...

Typically, a nanny agency will:

1. Have you sign a contract. Contracts detail the scope of agencies efforts, nanny agencies fees, the agencies guarantees if any, and the nanny agencies limited liability.
2. Collect a retainer from the family before beginning to recruit. Retainer may vary from $100-$300 dollars and is generally non-refundable and not contingent on a successful placement. Nanny agencies do not start work until a retainer has been paid.
3. Interview the family, in person if geographically feasible, to determine the family needs. The care an agency takes in this step is vital to a successful nanny:family match.
4. Begin the advertisement and recruitment activities to find appropriate candidates.
5. Pre-screen select candidates, verifying employment history and checking personal references.
