Sprinkle a little magic on this process.
Our team understands what a big deal this is- and we're here to advocate for you, collaborate with you, and introduce you to the best nannies in the Nashville area.
Before we dive into the details: professional nanny care through our agency typically ranges from $24-35 per hour, plus our placement fee. This investment reflects the expertise of thoroughly vetted childcare professionals who bring unique strengths to your family. Those rates reflect the exceptional candidates we represent - individuals with glowing references who often bring additional skills like:
★ Fluency in multiple languages
★ Years of experience with multiple families
★ Specialized training in child development
★ Expertise with specific age groups or situations
★ Advanced education or certifications
★ Strong track records of long-term family relationships (the kind of relationships where they stay in their nanny kiddos' lives long after their employment ends)
Importantly, these competitive rates lead to stronger, longer-lasting placements. When nannies feel valued and financially secure, they're more likely to stay with your family for years- providing the consistency and stability that helps children thrive.
A professional nanny is more than a childcare provider- they're a partner in your child's development and your family's well-being. Longevity matters. We'll help you get this right the first time.
