The placement process typically takes anywhere from 2-6 weeks. Full-Time placements match faster than part-time. We start with zoom interviews and then do in-person interviews before signing a candidate on.

Yes, for a one-time fee of $300 plus a small booking fee, you get access to fully vetted and background-checked babysitters at your convenience. To learn more, visit our Babysitting Service tab.

A nanny is an hourly or salary employee with a schedule. A babysitter will come to your home “as needed” with no set schedule.

All of our nannies have at least 3 years of childcare experience, wonderful references, are CPR/First Aid certified and have passed a background check.

We offer a full-year replacement period for our full-time placements, ensuring your peace of mind for at least a year. Part-time placements include a three-month replacement period. Additionally, our full-time placements come with an optional full year of babysitting service, while part-time placements include three months of babysitting service at no extra cost.

Nannies typically range from $25-$35/hour. Household managers will have higher rates than a nanny. If you would like to see our current job rates, please visit our Jobs page.

We do all of the legwork. We hand select and interview all of our nannies prior to sending them to you for an interview. We get to know all of our families, and only send candidates who we feel would be a good fit for the position long term. Furthermore, we do all of the reference checks and will run a criminal background check. Your job is simple - just pick your favorite candidate! We even schedule all the interviews for you.

As a busy parent, finding the right nanny for your family can be a challenging task. Fortunately, working with a reputable nanny agency, like The Nanny Haven, will make the process much smoother and stress-free. Some benefits include:

Access to a Large Pool of Qualified Nannies

One of the biggest benefits of working with a nanny agency is having access to a large pool of qualified nannies. Agencies typically have an extensive database of pre-screened and vetted candidates, which means you'll have a better chance of finding the right match for your family. This can save you a significant amount of time and effort compared to searching for nannies on your own.

A Replacement Period

There is nothing more frustrating than vetting a candidate, hiring, and it doesn’t work out. The Nanny Haven offers a full year replacement period for a Full-Time Placement with us.

Expertise and Support

Nanny agencies employ experienced and knowledgeable staff who can provide you with valuable guidance and support throughout the hiring process. They can help you navigate the interview process, provide advice on salary and benefits, and offer assistance with background checks and reference checks. This can be especially helpful if you're new to the nanny hiring process.

Quality Assurance

Working with a reputable nanny agency can provide you with peace of mind knowing that the nannies they recommend have undergone a thorough screening process. Agencies typically conduct extensive background checks, verify references, and ensure that candidates have the necessary qualifications and experience to provide high-quality childcare. This can help you avoid the risks and uncertainties associated with hiring a nanny on your own.

Flexibility

Nanny agencies can offer a range of options to meet your specific needs, whether you're looking for full-time or part-time care, live-in or live-out nannies, or temporary or permanent placement. They can also provide backup care if your regular nanny is unavailable due to illness or other reasons, which can be a lifesaver for busy parents.

Continued Support

Once you've hired a nanny through an agency, you'll typically have continued support and resources available to you. Agencies can provide guidance on how to manage your nanny-employer relationship, offer training and development opportunities for your nanny, and provide assistance with any issues that may arise during the employment relationship.

There is a $300 consultation fee that will include a 45-minute zoom call with a placement specialist, our nanny search, nanny profiles, nanny interviews and email correspondences with us. Please visit our Fees Page to learn more about our placement fees.

We customize every placement specifically for your family. We don’t just send out resumes. We get to know each family, and their needs, and only send candidate profiles that will match. We have a robust online portal that will allow clients to view candidate profiles, sign documents, and make offers on candidates! We will send candidates until we have a match. We also offer a full year replacement period for any full-time placement.

We currently place Nannies, Household Managers and Nanny/Household Managers. If you are interested in another household employee, please contact us directly.

Babysitters generally start at $22/hr and have a 4 hour minimum. Their rate will depend on the number of children being cared for and experience, as well as any special holiday care. Once you become a member of our service, each sitter will have their hourly rates listed on their profile.
