When should I start looking for a nanny? Since it takes time to understand the family and household situation, and then perform screening to prepare the matching procedures, we recommend parents to contact us 1 month prior to the desired service start date. Meanwhile, please allow time to communicate with the nanny and observe on the compatibility among the nanny and the kid. Leaving more time will ensure the adequate nanny service is allocated.

How can I find out whether the nanny qualifies or not?
1. Communication via phone: You can learn the nanny's professionalism and mannerism via the phone call, and thus estimating how well the nanny adapt to take care of your kid.
2. Listening to the kid's voice: Even before your kid learns how to speak at infant stage, parents can pay attention to the kids' cries whether if the tone is different ie. turn husky. You would be able to differentiate apart from the kid's fear from being away from the parents or the incompatibility with the nanny.
3. Observe the psychological changes in your kid: We do not recommend parents to ask the nanny to bathe the kid because shower time is an intimate moment to bond with your child. Another reason is often times the nanny might not be aware of wounds of the child, avoiding showering the kid will prevent further injuries and discomfort brought by someone that the child is not familiar with. Besides, you should observe the kid's mood and behavioural changes after the hiring of the nanny. Beware of verbal and physical abuse scenarios.
4. Observe the interaction between the nanny and the child: The nanny should know how to cope with cranky or stubborn behaviours, make an initiative to play and spend time with the kid. Besides, you can pay attention to household changes, for example, whether any hazardous items (i.e. sharp) or daily supplies are misplaced.
5. Observe the nanny's personality and habits: To prevent the nanny spoiling the kid, you can observe whether the nanny has bad habits. For instance, does the nanny purchase snacks for the kid without permission? Does the nanny display any rude and loud mannerism that results in insomnia for the child?
