Pleased to
Kith like kin.
Friends like family.
The cozy feeling of familiarity, warmth, and a nurturing home.
Hiring a caregiver to spend everyday in your home may feel like a daunting, intimidating task to go alone. We are here to live up to our name. Our goal is to match each family with someone who will grow to be as steadfast as kin, and as dependable as kith, all while maintaining professionalism and discretion.
We make searching for the perfect nanny, manny, governess, newborn care specialist, household assistant, or housekeeper infinitely easier by connecting qualified, exceptional candidates with vibrant, respectful families.
With over a decade of experience in household employment, child development, and childhood education, we understand the unique relationship between a caregiver and family firsthand, and we seek to link our caregivers with employers who value their histories and efforts. We are the experts in finding exceptional caregivers at a highly competitive NYC nanny agency rate.

What we value.
Utmost confidentiality. We take your confidence and trust as an honor. We insist that all parties, clients and candidates, hold personal information with discretion.
Clear communication. For candidates and clients alike, we provide you with a detailed outline and contract regarding our guarantees and expectations. Additionally, we provide a Work Agreement framework to use with your employee so that clear expectations may be met, and the relationship may prosper.
Collaborative, helpful partnerships. No man is an island. We work best when we work together. We seek families and caregivers who feel the same, trusting in each others strengths, for the betterment of each child. While a nanny and housekeeper are two different jobs, sometimes in a private home, there is crossover in tasks. We seek candidates who take initiative in the home, and families who respect the overall environment for the employee, and balance of compensation with duties.
Following the child. Just as Dr. Maria Montessori said, we seek to follow each child's individual path. In all things, to the best of our abilities, we work toward what is best and equitable for each child, knowing that the future belongs to them.
Giving back. With many blessings comes much gratitude. As our way of showing gratitude toward our families, friends, and colleagues along this road, 5% of our net-profits go toward a local charity whose mission is to serve children and families who are currently in unstable home environments. We know we are only one NYC nanny agency out of dozens to choose from. With us, your money also serves the community.

Why work with us.
Qualified candidates, only. Having a personal touch in all placements means that our NYC nanny agency will only introduce you to the best, most viable candidates for your family, instead of a parade of applicants. This means we won't be sending you a huge reserve of candidates to sort through and decide whom is qualified or not; that's our job! We don't try to make connections happen that wouldn't work in a thousand years just to get a paycheck-- that isn't our style. You set the parameters, and we work to check all the boxes. Above all, we are creating personality and philosophy matches to ensure peace in the home, and excellence in responsibilities.

We work around your schedule. We understand working parents are extremely busy and potentially overwhelmed with responsibilities. We serve our clients by meeting outside regular office hours if need be. We are able to come to your home or office, favorite cafe, or meet via video conference, or of course, you are welcome to come to our office. Forget taking off work, schlepping to Midtown in the suffocating heat or bone-chilling wind. Your career and family are equally important, and we only ask for your communication to make the process run as smoothly as possible.
Clear expectations. From the get-go, our agency is honest and realistic. We are straight talkers, in love: no fluff and no smooth talking, period. We tell you how we may meet your needs without hype and up-selling. Ask us of our informed opinion about a salary, placement timeline, or personality match, and we will provided you with an educated and experienced response. Current, relevant, firsthand experience. Our company's younger age works to our benefit in that we know firsthand what families of today need. Having worked in homes as a nanny has given us an edge in knowing what makes these unique relationships not just function, but thrive. From this experience comes an unmatched wisdom that other agencies may not understand coming from a business, corporate angle. We still work with families as caregivers. We actively see and learn from this industry with hands-on experience, now. This Caregiving is our world, our breath, our passion, and our bread and butter. Simply put, no other NYC nanny agency can advise you from a position of current experience and wisdom like we can. |
We pay it forward. On top of all of this, we donate 5% of our net-profits toward local charities whose mission is to serve children and families who are currently in unstable home environments. This is our way of showing our gratitude for the many blessings and advantages we have had in our lives and business.
