Savvy Sitters will then:
- Take careful consideration of your family's unique needs and requirements when searching for candidates.
- Review our nanny registry for potential candidates. Most nannies come to us directly, but often we like to place ads for specific jobs to ensure we're presenting you with the best candidates for your family.
- Screen resumes, conduct initial interviews and check references (for any new candidates). All nanny candidates undergo the same extensive screening process (see Nanny Requirements) before their resume is presented to you.
- Present 2-5 of the best candidates to you, along with their resumes and a brief description of each (and their references upon request).
- Initiate and coordinate interviews with the candidates you choose to interview.
3. Interview candidates, negotiate rates, and choose the perfect nanny for your family!
- Savvy Sitters provides sample interview questions, offer letter and job description for your new nanny.
- Savvy Sitters is happy to assist with salary negotiations.
- Savvy Sitters is happy to answer your tax and health care questions.
- If your employee doesn’t work out within 3 months, we will provide additional candidates free of charge.
