NannyNest

        

One request. One screened nanny. Paid and arranged through NannyNest.

I need a sitter
I'm a nanny

Trust isn't a feeling. It's a certificate of conduct, two references we called and a half-hour conversation.

How it works

As simple as ordering dinner

  1. 01

    Request a sitter

    Date, time, number of children and your neighbourhood. Thirty seconds, also from your phone.

  2. 02

    We match a screened nanny

    You get one confirmed nanny with name, photo and screening badges. No decision fatigue, and you can always ask for someone else.

  3. 03

    Paid and reviewed through NannyNest

    You pay online afterwards, the nanny gets paid properly and you leave a review. Same nanny next time? One tap.

Screening

Every nanny is NannyNest-screened

Six checks, for everyone, before they ring a family's doorbell. We check this so you don't have to.

  1. Certificate of conduct (VOG)

    Every nanny holds a recent Dutch certificate of conduct with the childcare screening profile. That's the strictest version, the same one daycare centres use.

  2. At least 18 years old

    Adults who are legally competent and personally responsible. Many of our nannies are older and have a pedagogical or care background.

  3. Two references we call

    We don't just ask for names, we actually phone them. Parents or employers the nanny has looked after children for before.

  4. Paediatric first aid

    A valid paediatric first-aid certificate, so your nanny knows what to do when a child chokes, falls or gets a fever.

  5. Identity check

    We check the ID document and compare it with the person in the video interview. The nanny who arrives is the nanny we screened.

  6. Personal video interview

    A half-hour conversation about experience, boundaries and real situations. We sense whether someone fits with families, not just with a checklist.

Every booking is insured. Every nanny, we have spoken to ourselves. Read why every step matters
