How do you start a nanny-share?
To quickly recap - a nanny-share is an arrangement where two families share the cost of one nanny. It comes with the bespoke services and benefits of a private nanny but at a more affordable cost for both families.
The first step in setting up a nanny-share is finding the right family with similar criteria.
There are a number of ways to find families who would like to do a nanny-share including:
local parenting groups
nanny agencies
word-of-mouth
referrals from friends and colleagues
online parenting message boards
If you do decide to go through the more manual route, you will need to have a checklist of your criteria and that could be, parenting styles and views, location of the nanny-share, cost sharing logistics, schedule, and more.
Once you find that match, you can either use the nanny you already have or locate a nanny together.
