BENEFITS OF EMPLOYING A LIVE-IN CAREGIVER

The mornings become much more relaxing for you, after your caregiver takes over. When your children become ill, Day cares will not take them back until they are well again. Nannies also keep your house tidy, your child gets one-on-one attention in your home., occasional evening/weekend coverage.  And the most important of all - you get to spend more quality time with your family!  Last but not least it is affordable and tax deductible.  Average out of pocket expense for the family is $1083/month.  ($1408 - $325 room/board expense)

 

SCREENING & PROCESSING

We offer a big selection of overseas and local applicants.  We interview and screen all of our nannies. We match you with the nannies that best fit your profile.  Our placement coordinator will work closely with you to guide you through the entire process.  Happy Kidz agency will be in constant contact with you throughout the entire hiring process.  Extensive follow-up is provided after the nanny starts working.  This is the best way to ensure that the employer/employee relationship is progressing smoothly.  Our ultimate goal is to make you and your nanny happy.
