Family Placement Process
We want to thank you for visiting MJs Nanny Agency. Our goal is to connect you with trustworthy, professional, and reliable childcare. We want this process to save you time and stress by requiring our candidates go through a thorough application and prescreening process. We run background checks, criminal and driving records, check references and past employment. This ensures safety for you and your family.

​
*Families looking for permanent or temporary/summer Nannies are required to pay an application fee of $250 to begin the search. We then send you qualified candidates who are interested in applying to be your nanny. Once you review your potential nanny candidates, we will connect you with them and set up the initial interviews. After you have decided to hire a Nanny, we then collect the remaining balance, or finder's fee before the nanny's start date.
​
*Family clients participate in a free phone consultation. We want to get to know your family's needs and make sure we are the right agency for you. We prescreen families who register with our agency to avoid fraudulent activity. To protect you, our nannies must also pass our prescreening and background check process. At MJs Nanny Agency, we strongly believe in building relationships, and we want to ensure the highest level of safety for our families and for our nannies. Other online Nanny and Sitter businesses do not require meetings, and do not run background, vehicle, or reference checks. These features are optional and are not required to be listed on online sites. We think that not only is finding the right nanny for you incredibly important, but we also take that extra step to make sure safety is of top priority as well.
​
*We require that once you have hired your nanny, families and nannies must sign an employment agreement. The agreement must have guaranteed hours and pay. The average rate of a professional nanny is between $20-$30/hour. The nannies we approve have years of professional experience, which may include certain certifications. They are required to have a CPR/First Aid certification, and a resume. The nannies we refer are looking to grow with families as being part-of-the-family. Families can pay their nannies legally through our partnered payroll service.
