Our childcare pipeline is narrower by design. Candidates are only carried forward if they can demonstrate prior nanny, crèche, or family childcare experience, verified where possible through a previous household or employer. We do not move a candidate into this category on the strength of a general domestic-work background alone.
Background checks for this category go a step further than our standard screening: identity verification is cross-checked, and candidates disclose any prior childcare-related incidents as part of intake. This is a category where a partner agency's downstream liability is higher, and we screen accordingly.
Training specific to childcare placements
- Basic child safety practice: choking response, safe sleep positioning for infants, medication-handling boundaries
- Age-appropriate routines for infants, toddlers, and school-age children
- Communicating with parents on daily routines, incidents, and household rules
- Standard language preparation, plus household-specific vocabulary around child health and routine
Because families place a high degree of trust in this role, we keep our childcare batches smaller and our screening timeline slightly longer than for other categories. Your demand letter's role description and any language or experience threshold you specify are matched against our pipeline before a candidate is proposed.
