WORLDWIDE NANNIES places both live in and live out caregivers.

WORLDWIDE NANNIES screens all nanny caregivers in the same thorough manner.

WORLDWIDE NANNIES provides nanny/caregivers who:

  • speak English and/or French
  • are experienced and/or trained at care giving
  • have been screened with medical and police tests
  • provide work references that are contacted and checked
  • are dedicated to a career of care giving
  • have a stable background
  • have a care giving attitude
  • are suitably educated

There are many false notions about nannies, especially about those coming from overseas.....i.e.:

  • you are NOT sponsoring someone to become a Canadian
  • you DO NOT necessarily pay their airfare
  • you are NOT committed to keeping them for a specific time, though you are asked to be fair
  • you DO NOT have to house a nanny who is no longer working for you
  • you DO NOT pay more for a live in nanny

Overseas nannies come here on a very specific work permit "only for nannies". This work permit is to be a nanny "only" and for a period of one year. This permit is "renewable" for a second year provided all conditions are met (employed etc). If the nanny chooses to apply for "landed status", that process is to-date taking close to another year. After that time, your nanny may still remain employed by you if you both agree. However, once your nanny has her landed status and applies further for her Canadian Citizenship, she may live out and work at other jobs.

Overseas nannies are under the Canadian Labour Laws (i.e.: collect employment insurance if unemployed, pay personal income taxes, receive benefits of health care, etc)

SALARIES for nannies start at $8.00 per hour. The cost of a live in nanny is usually around $1,300 per month. The cost of a live out nanny is more because you do not deduct room and board from salary.

NANNIES ARE THE MOST ECONOMICAL CARE GIVING AVAILABLE!
