👶 5 Signs You’ve Found the Right Nanny for Your Family
1. 🧡 Your Child Lights Up Around Them
Children are great judges of character. If your little one smiles, laughs, and feels at ease when the nanny arrives, that’s a huge green flag. A genuine connection can’t be forced—it shows in the little moments.
Tip: Observe how your child acts after the nanny leaves. Happy and settled? You're on the right track.
2. 🤝 Your Values Align
Whether you follow gentle parenting, structured routines, or Montessori methods—your nanny should understand and support your approach. The right nanny becomes an extension of your parenting style, not a contradiction of it.
At Nest & Kin, we match families with nannies who fit your ethos—not just your schedule.
3. 📱 Communication Is Easy and Open
Do you feel comfortable sharing thoughts, feedback, and daily updates? A great nanny will:
Keep you informed
Listen without judgment
Be honest and proactive
That easy, respectful communication builds long-term trust.
4. 🌟 They Go the Extra Mile
It’s more than just keeping kids safe—your ideal nanny:
Plans age-appropriate activities 🎨
Encourages development đź“š
Notices and nurtures emotional needs đź’•

You feel supported.
