How We Work

Home How We Work

Safe and Sound Nannies places qualified San Diego Nannies with loving, stable families. We believe that we are successful only if you — the nanny — are successful.

We charge nothing to the nanny.  Our client families pay our fee.

Nannies do not contact the families directly.  If you complete our application information, we will review your information and determine if you are qualified to be the right match for one of our families.  If you meet the initial qualifications to be the right match, then we will call your references and interview you in person.

We ask that you undergo a simple yet thorough screening process that includes an application, a true/false personality screen, employment reference checks, court record check, and a driving record check. If you meet our qualifications and we both feel that you may be a good fit for one of our families, we will interview you in person for 90 minutes.  Safe and Sound Nannies chooses only qualified San Diego nannies with verifiable references to work for our families. If you meet our qualifications, we will place you with a family where you should be treated with respect, and your care of the children will be valued and compensated fairly. We endeavor to work quickly and do not waste your valuable time. We are protective of our nannies and we only work with quality families so that you and their children can build a long-term relationship that benefits everyone.

What We Expect From You

Over 21 years of age

Our Policy Regarding Families and Nannies

Safe and Sound Nannies maintains a policy of placing competent nannies with solid families. A mutually respectful relationship between the family and our agency, and the family and a nanny candidate is vitally important. We are selective.  We refer only nannies who have completed our selection process and have earned our trust. At the same time, we expect that the family will treat the nanny with respect. Our goal is for the family and their nanny to maintain a stable, enduring relationship that is mutually beneficial and rewarding. We try to lay the groundwork for this relationship so that the children have predictability in their life and form a healthy, stable attachment to their caregiver.
