FAQs for finding a live-in nanny near you
What is a live-in nanny?
A live-in nanny provides consistent care for a child or multiple children, unlike a babysitter who only looks after your children on select occasions. Live-in nannies live in the home with you, which adds an extra layer of convenience for your family. You can find live-in nannies who specialize in infant care or a bilingual nanny who can help your children learn a new language.
Are live-in nannies background checked?
All live-in nannies on Care.com are asked to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck. The live-in nannies who complete this background check have a badge on their profile that displays the date it was run. A CareCheck is a good starting point, but we strongly recommend that you follow some additional steps when hiring a nanny to help ensure safety for your family, such as interviewing potential live-in nannies, requesting references, and running your own private background check.
What should I ask a live-in nanny during an interview?
When it comes time to interview a live-in nanny, a great place to start is confirming they are comfortable living in your home and how long you expect to need a nanny for so they can plan their living arrangements accordingly. You can also ask them about prior work experience, how they would handle different disciplinary scenarios, and what their preferred job responsibilities are.
Do live-in nannies pay rent?
No, live-in nannies don’t pay rent to live in their client’s home. Both parties can benefit here as the nanny doesn’t have to pay for a place to live and the family has easier access to childcare.
