A Nanny You Can Trust
Many babysitting services charge their clients a substantial hourly rate and pay their nannies a low wage. At Nannies Who Care our professional nannies receive 100% of the hourly rate listed below, which reflects the average wage for professional nannies in this area. Our nannies are well compensated which enables us to attract the best and most qualified nannies.
Beware of limited background checks done by online nanny services, especially those that say they do it for a “minimal” fee. These checks are simply computer name search database checks and not as thorough as our check. Also no one ever meets these individuals and checks their ID. How do you know they are the person that is checked out? Also, their legal status is not checked, and you could be hiring someone who is not legally permitted to work in the country! If you choose to go this route, be thorough, ask questions and check ID!
As a parent we pose these questions for you when you are looking for somebody to trust caring for your children:
Do you feel comfortable with somebody caring for your children being paid $11/hr when the average rate a nanny charges is $16/hr and up?
This is what sitting services pay their nannies while charging you $30+/hr plus transportation charges. We use only professional nannies. We never take a portion of the nanny’s salary. The hourly rate paid goes directly to them. This provides you with a career nanny at a fair hourly rate.
Do you feel comfortable with somebody caring for your children with a limited background check done?
Ask them to be specific on exactly what items they check. Do they check other states’ criminal records if the nanny lived there? We do! We also check the nanny’s driving record, social security number, childcare references, and personal character references in writing, and have personal in-depth interviews with each nanny. We also ensure each nanny has an up-to-date CPR and First Aid Certification including the infant and child courses!
Some examples of Sitting Services:
- Temporary childcare coverage
- Going to a hockey or football game
- Evening out to dinner or some other special event
- Going out of town on business
- Weekend vacation
All nannies will care for your children at your hotel or home. With your permission, the nanny can take your children to the entertainment centers, the park, swimming pool, or other places by car.
