Schedule a callThe Nanny Network has developed a proven system for recruiting, screening, and placing safe and dependable full-time and part-time nannies, family assistants, and household managers with families of all ages. Countless families have utilized our services, and the number of families and care professionals who return to us speaks to our successful track record and the trust we earn with each constituent. We pride ourselves on the relationships we have built with our clients, care professionals, and within the industry.
Our Long-term Placements division is headed up by Kelly Gregory and encompasses any search that has a job duration of 2 months or more and places:
- Full-time live-out nannies needed for 2 months or more (minimum 30 hours per week)
- Newborn care for 2 months or more (Classic Service Only)
- Family Assistants (Care Professionals who assist with child care, as well as family laundry, family meals, errands, and general household organization) – Best for families with children already attending preschool or older
- Sidekicks (Household professionals who help lighten the load through the provision of laundry service, errand service, and household management) – Sidekicks are not child care providers or housekeepers
- Shared care (involving one candidate and two families who have already found each other and decided they’d like to share a household employee)
Our clients have the choice of two different placement packages when pursuing a long-term search. Both packages support our mission-critical purpose of placing safe, vetted and dependable child care professionals with families looking to create more balance.
Classic Service… Safe and Simple [Parent-Paid]
The Classic Service is designed for those families who desire the expertise and convenience of our Placement team along with the ability to directly manage, train and negotiate their own household employee. As a Classic client, you will be assigned a Placement Consultant who will be your partner throughout your search to ensure that all of your questions are answered and the process is made as simple for you as possible. Your Placement Consultant will lead you through the initial consultation during which you will review the nuts and bolts of the search process. You will also discuss your position in detail to ensure that your Consultant can carefully match only those candidates who are a strong possibility for your family. Once you have time to review the candidates who have been referred to you, you will then schedule interviews (including a working interview) with your top candidate and be on your way to making one of the most important best investments you’ll ever make! After each interview, your Consultant will be in touch to collect your feedback on the candidates which is critical to a successful placement.
This package requires a $350 non-refundable retainer fee to initiate the process. A placement fee equal to 20% of the gross total annual compensation is then due if you hire a candidate that we have referred to you. We will also provide you with a portfolio of hiring tools that are integral in establishing a strong and healthy relationship with your new household employee.
Concierge Service… Safe and Sound [Agency-Paid]
Having difficulty finding time and energy to hire, pay, and manage a childcare provider? Say goodbye to the stress and let The Nanny Network take the reins. Our Concierge Long Term placement service is designed to make your life easier in every way possible.
This package requires a $350 non-refundable retainer fee to initiate the process. Gone are the days of navigating complex tax forms, payroll deadlines and employee reviews. With The Nanny Network, we handle all the tedious administrative tasks for you. From payroll taxes to employment contracts to professional development, we’ve got you covered.

**We suggest parents plan for a long-term search to take anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks, depending on what you’re looking for.**
The Nanny Network takes its role in your nanny search very seriously. We are not concerned with how many placements we make, but instead with the quality of those placements. It is not unusual for us to counsel a family against hiring a candidate if we feel that it would not be a good, long-term fit. We will remain in contact with you after you have hired to make sure things are going well!
Our long-term replacement policy is 90 days for both the Classic and Concierge services (if your position is for 1 year or more). If your position is for 1 year or less, then the period is 30 days.
