Types of nanny positions and nanny qualifications
We place both live-in and live-out professional nannies in Napa Valley, Sonoma, Marin and Solano Counties. Our candidates must be fluent and literate in English, drive and have two or more years of nanny and/or teaching experience. The nanny must have verifiable references. Our reference checking procedure is one of the most stringent in the North Bay. We require that nannies that work with infants and newborns have prior experience with that age child. We also require that our candidates be legally eligible to work in the U.S.

Nanny salaries and duties
Our nannies salaries range from $12 to $20 per hour depending on duties and number of children. For Part-time services we have a 15 hour per week minimum. The nanny will focus on your children and does light child-related household chores, such as the children's laundry, cooking for the children and tidying up the children's rooms and kitchen.

 How our nanny screening helps protect your family

Our screening begins the moment the nanny makes her application. The application itself is six pages long and is designed for us to get to know her and her employment history. After she has completed her interview(s), her background investigation then begins. We reject approximately 50% of the nannies that submit an application.

A critical part of our screening process is reference checking. We ask questions on our application that must match what the employer tells us. About 20% of nannies give us phony references and they are immediately rejected. The reference checking gives us important information on how the nanny related to the children. We provide this information to you.

At the time of placement we provide you with a DMV printout and criminal background reports for each county the nanny has lived in for the last seven years. The nanny needs to be CPR certified and will be sent at our expense if she/he is not. We register each nanny with TrustLine when she is placed. Done by the California Department of Children's Services, TrustLine uses fingerprints to conduct a criminal background search, including a search of the child abuse registry throughout California. The FBI does a national criminal records search.
