The Smarter Choice for Parents

Bypass the expensive agencies and the hit-or-miss nature of unmanaged freelancers.

Agencies & Unmanaged Gigs

  • High Placement Fees Placement agencies often charge 15-20% of a nanny's annual salary upfront.

  • Zero Accountability If you hire a solo freelancer, you spend your time managing them and their errors.

  • Inconsistent Quality Research quality varies wildly depending on the freelancer's mood or availability.

  • Billing Headaches Hidden platform fees and currency conversion issues on traditional bidding sites.

Family Research FAQs

Everything you need to know about delegating your childcare logistics.

How do you verify the quality of a daycare or preschool?
We don't just look at websites. Our VAs check state licensing records for violations, aggregate reviews from multiple sources (Google, Yelp, Facebook groups), and call the centers directly to confirm current ratios, staff turnover, and waitlist availability.
Can the VA handle nanny background checks?
While we aren't a background check agency, your VA will coordinate the process through your preferred third-party service (like Checkr or Sterling). They will also perform thorough reference calls, asking behavioral questions to ensure the candidate fits your family's dynamic.
Do they have native-level English?
Absolutely. Research and communication require high nuance. We only assign specialists with native or C2-level proficiency to ensure all school inquiries and reference calls are handled with the utmost professionalism.
How is "pure work" time tracked?
We use centralized time-tracking software. You are billed exclusively for the exact minutes the VA is actively searching, calling schools, or compiling reports. Project Management supervision and QA are completely free.
Can they research specialized care (SEN/Special Needs)?
Yes. Our VAs can research providers, therapists, and schools that specialize in various developmental needs, IEP support, or neurodivergent-friendly environments based on your specific requirements.
How do we share sensitive family data?
Security is our priority. We recommend the use of secure password managers like LastPass and secure file-sharing portals for any sensitive documents. All VAs sign strict, legally binding NDAs.
What is the typical turnaround for a daycare report?
Once requirements are submitted, a comprehensive comparison report for a specific area typically takes 3 to 5 business days, depending on how quickly schools respond to our inquiries.
Is there a long-term commitment?
No. We operate on a month-to-month basis based on the hours you choose. Once your search is successful, you can scale down or pause your hours immediately.
