What Do Nannies Do?
Nannies are very different from babysitters. Becoming a professional caregiver means you are vital to the family’s organization and sanity.
​
Becoming a nanny is more than sitting and watching a child play. As a professional nanny, your role is so much more!
Parents depend on you to care for their house, take the children to and from lessons, engage the kids in educationally-advanced playtime, and ensure everyone’s safety the entire time!
​
As a professional sitter, you must be a problem solver, a shoulder to cry on, a multi-tasker, and an organizational guru!
Nanny duties often include:
-
Preparing meals for both the children and the parents.
-
Driving the little ones to school, tutors, daycares, or fun events.
-
Creating lesson plans and activities
-
Taking the initiative to manage the household
-
Assist with chores and errands
-
Maintain a safe environment
-
Keeping the kitchen clean by loading and unloading the dishwasher, emptying the trash, and wiping counters.
-
You may request Light housekeeping, such as light vacuuming to keep new crawling babies safe.
-
Traveling with the family on vacation domestically or internationally.

Our childcare positions pay between $20.00 an hour (on the lowest end of the spectrum) and range up to $45.00 an hour (based on your professional nanny experience).

In certain instances, employees might receive hourly wages via check or cash.

Nanny Benefits
Our employment agency and nanny recruiting service strongly recommend that families offer a substantial vacation package to prevent burnout. These packages are performance-based and vary from one week to six weeks.
Often, the family will choose half of the scheduled vacation days you take, choosing the remaining days based on your personal needs.
In addition, some families offer sick pay if you have to call out when you have a fever, a sick child, or an uncontrollable cough.
Your nanny boss will decide which vacation days s/he can offer, including national holidays, sick days, and paid time off. Federal holidays are up to the client's discretion but may consist of Independence Day, Thanksgiving Eve, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, or New Year's Eve.
It is important to TENT and our clients that you, the babysitter, balance life and work properly. We want to ensure you are entirely dedicated to your nanny families while comfortably managing your own life.
Personalized Contracts
You will receive a personalized contract developed by The Elite Nanny Team to establish expectations, initiate communication, and set boundaries. We take information from both parties to develop a working relationship.
Your work contract will state your hours, the number of children you are expected to watch, and the family's duties.
It also indicates specific rules the family wants to be followed, tasks you will be responsible for, like cleaning and cooking, and whether you only do the children's laundry or the parents' laundry.
If you use your car to take the kids to school, activities, or appointments - your contract will promise to reimburse you for using your vehicle and paying for gas. In addition, it stipulates how taxes, social security, state taxes, and unemployment will be handled.
Your employer will sometimes cover these costs, while others will want you to manage your taxes.
A contract offers a beautiful working environment where transparency is critical, fairness is valued, and respect is fostered among employees and employers.
We favor an open-door policy, and you are always welcome to come to us if you have concerns, questions, or requests.
