What We Do For You
We Provide the Recipe for success
Do-It-Yourself & we coach & guide you every step of the way.
Your new hire will be a better fit if you have more control over the process from the very beginning.
You are also prepared for a rehire situation. If you have young children you most likely will rehire. The avg. nanny stays 1 year or less.
*We are your coach from day 1 & we are here as long as you need us... Days, Months, Years!
Do You Know The Difference?
Caution! Not all Background checks are the same. Some are FAR more comprehensive than others. Knowing the difference can mean your child's safety! This is where 25 years of industry experience helps!
Hard copies are provided.
*Pro Tip, every background check should include a Sex Offenders Report.
Yes, contracts are important
Why not be clear on mutual expectations from day 1? Contracts/Work Agreements prevent any misunderstandings & ensure you a proactive working relationship!
Our attorney-written contracts have you covered.
**Pro Tip, The cost of an attorney-approved contract alone costs more than The DIY Packet!
Interview Questions
Having a list of interview questions is beneficial. You stay on track & are able to compare each nanny/babysitter based on the answers to the same questions. We provide you our tried & true interview questions that haven't failed us in over 25 years.
We take your child care seriously!
**Pro tip, write down the responses.
References
In this digital age it's pretty common to encounter "Fake References". Avoid reaching out to references by email alone & through social media etc.
This is when you NEED to speak with the reference personally!
We provide the questions to ask,.. you just need to call.
**Pro Tip, ask for 3 professional & 3 personal references......Like we did!
Nanny Evaluations
A great Nanny/Babysitter/Family working relationship starts with communication. Offering an opportunity to sit down with your nanny & praise her for the great job she is doing always helps! If there are areas she/he may need to continue to work on, this is a great "nonthreatening" way to do so without conflict.
*Pro tip, schedule a review at 30, 90 & 180 days.
