Nanny Requirements

EXTRAORDINANNY refers only the best caregivers to local families. We look for previous professional child care experiences such as: nanny, day care center teacher, family day care provider in your own home, teacher, nurse, or any other position that required you to oversee the well-being of children. Since we do require previous professional child care experience, you must be at least 18 years old to apply.

A minimum of 3 child care references are required, and they are all checked thoroughly. References can be previous employers or supervisors in a position where you were responsible for the care of children, and parents of those children.

Education is a plus as well. A high school education is a must, and many families are interested in nannies with degrees in child psychology, child development, child care, educations, etc.

A safe, reliable vehicle with a backseat, is required in most cases, and a valid driver's license is a must.

All applicants must be willing to have background checks completed by EXTRAORDINANNY. This includes criminal and child abuse, driving record and credit checks.

Infant and child CPR and First Aid are required by most families. This is the only cost that nanny has to incur during the application process, and may be done after a firm offer is made by a family that is accepted by you. The cost ranges from $40 to $60, depending on if you have health insurance coverage.

Welcome to EXTRAORDINANNY. We offer a placement service that will match your skills and experience with one of the many temporary or permanent job openings. We work hard to find number and ages of children, hours, and personality/philosophy of the families. We pride ourselves on our matchmaking abilities!
