The Nanny Network has seen tremendous growth in its short-term placement division as a result of its close attention to detail and ability to place vetted, experienced child care and teaching professionals with families with minimal lead time.

      • eLearning Aides (1-hour daily minimum, virtual)

    • Sidekicks (short-term household help in the form of errand service, laundry service, simple meal prep and other chores)

SHORT-TERM PLACEMENT PROCESS

The process to find a temporary nanny or private educator is slightly different from the long-term search process as described below. It also takes less time:

    • Completion of our online application by parent
    • Application review with a Nanny Network Staffing Specialist to discuss any special needs or situations
    • Completion of Service Agreement via online client dashboard
    • Temporary job request made using the Book Care form found in your client dashboard
    • Booking of a temporary nanny, family assistant, or School@Home helper, confirmed by an email with a link to your caregiver’s profile (including job history, education, skills, reference highlights and additional training). This information is stored in the job history section of your dashboard.
    • Automated credit card payment (including a 3% transaction fee) or ACH debit payment (for jobs booked 48 hours in advance) via Stripe upon booking confirmation
    • Nanny, family assistant or School@Home helper will reach out to introduce herself, confirm all of the job details, and discuss any transportation-related details if applicable (i.e., directions, parking, etc.) *
    • You now have safe and dependable coverage for your family so you can carry on with your schedule with peace of mind!
