Frequently asked questions

 At Nurtured Nest Agency, we provide personalized, full-service household staffing solutions for families seeking exceptional care and support. We specialize in placing highly vetted, professional nannies who are carefully matched to each family’s unique lifestyle, values, and needs.

 From initial consultation to final placement, we manage the entire process with discretion, attention to detail, and a commitment to excellence—ensuring a seamless and elevated experience for every family we serve. 

 We begin with a personalized consultation to understand your family’s needs, preferences, and household dynamics. From there, we carefully source, vet, and present highly qualified candidates. Once you select your preferred nanny, we guide you through interviews, trial periods, and onboarding to ensure a confident and successful placement.

We take pride in our thorough vetting process. Each candidate undergoes:

• In-depth interviews
• Reference checks
• Background screening
• Experience verification

We only present candidates who meet our high standards of professionalism, character, and reliability.

We are not a volume-based agency—we are relationship-driven. Our approach is highly personalized, ensuring each placement is a thoughtful and intentional match. We prioritize discretion, trust, and long-term success for both families and caregivers.

I (Megan/Founder) am directly involved in every interview, every evaluation, and every placement decision—ensuring nothing is overlooked.

With the perspective of raising six children and the experience of having a truly exceptional nanny, I bring both high standards and real-life insight into what makes a placement successful. I don’t simply match resumes—I discern character, compatibility, and the subtle dynamics that create a thriving home environment.

This intentional, high-touch approach allows us to create placements that are not only qualified—but truly aligned.

At this time, we are focused on finding part-time and full-time placements. 

Our placement fees reflect the high level of service, screening, and personalized matching we provide. Pricing varies based on the type of placement and level of support required. We are happy to discuss details during your consultation. Please fill out a Family Inquiry Form so we can better serve you!

 Prospective nannies can apply by completing our online candidate application. Once submitted, our team will review your experience and qualifications and reach out if you are a strong fit for our client families. 

 We seek experienced, professional caregivers who are dependable, nurturing, and aligned with our agency’s values. Strong references, childcare experience, and a genuine passion for working with children are essential. 

 We do not charge placement fees to nannies. Our goal is to connect qualified candidates with exceptional families at no cost to you (the candidate).

If selected, you will be invited to complete an interview and screening process. From there, we will begin presenting you with opportunities that align with your experience and availability.

Our typical placement timeline ranges from 2–6 weeks, depending on your family’s specific needs, schedule requirements, and the level of experience you’re seeking.

We prioritize quality over speed, carefully vetting candidates to ensure the right long-term fit for your home. While some placements happen more quickly, others may take additional time to find the perfect match.

Yes! We remain available to both families and nannies after placement to ensure a smooth transition and continued success. Our goal is long-term, thriving relationships—not just placements. Continued consultation calls will happen periodically-for both nannies AND families-throughout the placement depending upon the length of the contract.
