Questions
What are your nanny placement fees?
A $150 search retainer is credited toward the final placement fee. Part-time placement (up to 29 hours per week) is $1,500. Full-time placement (30 or more hours per week) is $3,000.
What hourly rate should we budget for a nanny?
Typical nanny rates in the DMV are approximately $25–$35+ per hour, depending on experience, responsibilities, and family needs. Our minimum hourly rate for matching families with nannies is $20 per hour. Nanny wages are separate from our placement fees.
Who employs the nanny?
Your family does. The nanny is hired directly as your household employee, and wages are paid between your family and the nanny.
Do you only place full-time nannies?
We place full-time, part-time, live-in, temporary, and nanny-share caregivers. For occasional care, our sitter service is a better fit.
How long does a nanny search take?
Most searches take two to five weeks. Specialized needs or unusual schedules can take longer.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Part-time positions are generally up to 29 hours a week with a six-month minimum. Full-time positions are 30 or more hours a week with a twelve-month minimum, which keeps placements stable for children and caregivers.
How do you vet nannies?
Candidates go through interviews and an assessment of their professionalism, childcare approach, and values. Once you choose a nanny, we complete background and reference checks before the placement is final.
Do nannies complete an orientation?
Yes. Every nanny we place completes the Muslim Nannies orientation, covering professionalism, communication, child safety, and working in a family’s home.
