Nanny Care In-Home Placement Services
The services listed below are not licensed child care providers, nor are the nannies
that they place. Nannies do not need a license since they provide care in your home. Child
Care Resources does not endorse any of these services or their nannies. We
recommend that you check the references of the services.
Placement services shorten the selection process
for parents by doing the actual search, screening applicants, background
checks, and reference checks. These services generally expect placement
to take from one week to three months to find a nanny, with the usual
time being one to four weeks.
Some agencies maintain lists of families wanting
a nanny share situation. You will be charged an initial fee of from $500
to first month’s salary. Placement is usually guaranteed up to three
months. If a nanny does not work out within that period some placement
services will find a replacement free of charge. All placement services
operate similarly. However, there will be variations in their practices
and procedures. Because the number of in-home placement services has
grown rapidly in the past few years, be sure to talk to several services
before deciding which one to use, and screen them carefully. Compare the
minimum qualifications each service requires of their candidates. They
will differ.

Lambert as an affordable alternative to traditional agencies. eNanny
Source not only provides families with a quality list of nannies nationwide,
but it also provides them with the information and methods they will need to
