Nanny Placement Agencies
If you really want to find a nanny job, don't waste your time running all over town posting your “Nanny for Hire” banners all over the place. Instead, go to a reputable online nanny placement agency and check it out. Read the placement agency's privacy policy before posting your profile. Basically, any reputable nanny placement agency is going to be a safe place to find a nanny job.
The way it works is that it's usually free for the person looking for nanny jobs to post a profile. The family recruiting nannies has to pay a fee in order to find out any information about you, other than the basics. In other words, if a family wants to contact you, they have to pay the membership fee first. That process helps to ensure that there's a commitment from the family. Not just anybody can contact you randomly once you've posted your profile to a nanny placement agency.
What usually happens at that point is that the family submits a request to contact you directly through the nanny placement agency. The placement agency then contacts you, the nanny, to make arrangements. Once you've accepted the offer to communicate, the ball is in your court. You're under absolutely no obligation to meet the family in person. Initial contact is always done through email and then it's up to you if you want to take it to the next step.
Finding a nanny job by posting your profile to a reputable online nanny placement agency is safe and easy.
