Agency Fees


We are the only London based agency offering 3 options of competitive fees and services to suit individual families.

Please note that all our fees are independent of the candidates’ salary and permanent placements are based on a 12 week probation period.

We strongly suggest offering a trial period before making an official job offer. A trial period for a daily nanny is one day or 2 part days and 2 days for a live-in. The agency does not charge for trial periods, however, the client is responsible to pay for the candidates’ time.
