Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Hello, Nanny!™ unique?
Hello, Nanny!™ was founded by a mom-boss and 15-year career nanny & 6-year placement specialist. We understand the needs of a career nanny and a family. With both perspectives, alongside cutting-edge technology to provide families and nannies with complete transparency and insight during their search, we are exceptionally skilled at placements that are long-lasting.
What is the typical search time for a Hello, Nanny!™
The placement process can span 1–8 weeks. The timeline may be extended or shortened depending on the complexity of the position and prerequisites, including but not limited to the availability of qualified candidates in a given market, accessibility and availability to conduct interviews & working trials, and many other circumstances that may arise beyond our control. We strive to ensure that our placements check EVERY box and that our families never feel like they are settling. The process takes time and patience on everyone’s part, however, rest assured that it is Hello, Nanny’s!™ job and mission to identify the most qualified candidate for each family.

How to hire a nanny?
Hiring a nanny takes a lot of time and energy. Parents attempting the search on their own often end up with a door of unreliable and revolving candidates. However, the sure way to hire a nanny is through an experienced agency like Hello, Nanny!, where we interview hundreds and candidates monthly to continually add to our database of reliable pre-vetted career nannies that families can rely on in the long term. Because of our expertise in the field, we realize that each match is special and work to position nannies and families for success.
Where to hire a nanny?
There are many options for families to choose from when sourcing a caregiver for their child. Some choose corporate daycare, or in-home daycares, and others opt for an in-home nanny. Searches most commonly take place on the web. However, many online platforms allow anyone to build a caregiver profile with very little vetting or validity to profiles. The most secure place to search for a career nanny is through a nanny placement agency. Nanny agencies do extensive research, interviewing, vetting, background checks, and personality checks to ensure that families are speaking with reliable professional nannies, and eliminate the exhaustive process of sourcing hundreds of online profiles claiming to be a nanny.
How do you hire a nanny?
The process of hiring a nanny might take anything from 4 to 12 weeks. Identifying and screening applicants for interviews is the first stage. Run a background check, an MVR check, and check references on a potential nanny before meeting them. Extend the in-person interview when the background check is successful. A paid working trial should be scheduled if the interview goes well. The initial few candidates might not be a good fit, so this process could take weeks. Other characteristics including parenting style and attention to detail might not match.
How to hire a good nanny?
Perception is different for every person. Family needs vary vastly. Therefore, a good nanny for one family is not good for another. An experienced nanny however will have a work history with a family of at least 3 years or have worked in a formal daycare or school setting. They may also possess early childhood education or training. They are forward thinkers. They need very little guidance or hand holding. They have planned activities for children. Professional nannies who communicate effectively with the parents are reliable, punctual, and able to help the household run smoothly. Each family has unique needs, so it’s always important to define what a “good” nanny looks like to your family.
How much does it cost to hire a nanny?
The hourly cost of a career nanny varies depending on a few factors. The market rate for a professional nanny will vary depending on where your family lives. A role in one's rates is also how many kids you have. Career nannies base their rates on your position demands as well as their experience, education, location, and value.
