The International Nanny Association and the Association of Premier Nanny Agencies are two of the best associations that an agency can be a part of. They have set the industry standards in ethical conduct, customer service and professionalism.

#2: Look for agencies that conduct full background checks.

When it comes to having someone working in your home and especially working closely with your children, you will want to be sure that they have undergone a thorough caregiver and nanny background check. Some nanny agencies will claim to check backgrounds, but only do so at the national level, which doesn’t look at the whole picture. Be sure the nanny agency checks the background at national, state, and city levels, so you can be sure you get all of the information you need. By checking each of these areas, you will be able to find out about smaller things that be a deciding factor in your hiring or not hiring of the potential candidate.
