Benefits of Using A Nanny Agency
So you’ve finally come to the conclusion that your family needs a nanny to care for your new baby or busy toddlers. Where do you even start? I have so many mom friends who don’t know where to begin when searching for the right fit for their family. What should I look for in a nanny? How can I trust someone to care for my child like I do? What qualifications can I expect? I know it can seem easier to do it yourself, but working with a nanny agency can save you lots of time and energy.
Standards are high!
Ensuring the safety of our little ones is always the top priority for parents. Every busy parent wants to know that their child is cared for by someone they can trust. Unfortunately, the in-home childcare industry isn’t one that is very well regulated. Here at Sommet Nannies, we work hard to promote professionalism in the nanny industry and educate our clients on industry standards. Commissioning an agency to help in your search means that you are expecting a certain standard for the childcare provider you ultimately receive. Here at Sommet Nannies, our team has direct experience in the industry and a passion for finding candidates who exhibit exceptional child rearing qualities.
Let’s save some time!
Starting a search on your own takes a lot of time. Creating a job description, posting advertisements, and conducting interviews is very time consuming for parents who are already strapped for time. When parents begin their search independently, they often forget how much time goes into reference checks, sifting through resumes, and responding to potential candidates. Many agencies will provide you with a short list of potential candidates that could fit your family needs and have already covered the busy work at the front end.
Continued familial support.
As an agency, we are here for support from the beginning of the search and beyond. Many agencies will check in months after original recruitment for support or a general update. In this industry, we all have a soft spot for seeing little ones thriving and happy. We want to be sure that your children are in loving hands.
