ASSESSMENT
Our assessment process is the only one of its kind.
We spend 90 minutes with your candidate face-to-face, evaluating critical aspects of her personality and caregiving qualities others don't even know to look for.
But first, we learn about you ~ Your personality, preferences, and family, AND your preconceived notions. Everyone holds assumptions about how their nanny should behave. These often go unspoken, even unrecognized... until your nanny disappoints you.
We use our expertise in psychology to help you articulate your assumptions early on, so you can identify candidates with a deeper level of compatibility.

Why Do So many
Nanny Relationships Fail?
Lacking information about her
Even with references and interviews you're still limited to:​
• Her own description of herself​ • Third-party references written by strangers • Descriptions of her by agency interviewers who lack first-hand knowledge about her caregiving • That "gut feeling" you get that you can't fully explain With ​so little reliable information it's impossible to gauge whether a candidate has the maturity, skills and personality to take good care of your child and be responsive to you.
Settling for a nanny who seems "nice"
A nice girl may seem pleasant to be around, but:​
• She may be unable to develop meaningful connections, leaving your child emotionally alone and confused in her presence. • She may be incapable of interpreting your child's difficult behaviors, causing power struggles that leave everyone feeling helpless and upset. • She may have repressed anger that no one knows of until it leaks out in undesirable and passive-aggressive ways.​ A nice girl who's also a good nanny provides appropriate empathy, warmth and support to your child - especially during challenging moments. ​
MISUNDERSTANDING
FAMILY CULTURE
A successful nanny is not only a good child caregiver, but is also someone who naturally adapts to your family.​​​
• Assumptions and expectations about how things should be done is different for everyone. Every family has a "culture." • Knowing the culture of your family requires a clear view of your own personality, communication styles and unexamined standards. • Without this knowledge about yourself and your family, what initially seems like a good fit with a nanny may devolve into frustration and acrimony as conflicts arise.
