All nanny and domestic candidates are fully screened by a trained Placement Specialist, and go through our thorough vetting process. This vetting process includes a review of the candidate’s resumé, a pre-screening interview, reference check (a member of the Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency team checks all references in-house, the family has a chance to call as well, as we are completely transparent, and encourage parent to parent conversation), and are extensively background checked as close to hiring as possible (So we have the most up-to-date information). The nanny and domestic professionals we recommend are experienced industry professionals, college educated (or have equivalent experience), CPR/First Aid certified, have their own reliable transportation, go through our prescreening interview process, have glowing references, and pass a national background check.

We look forward to assisting your family in finding the best nanny or domestic candidate to fit your family’s unique needs.
All Nannies and Domestic Candidates we Refer go Through Our Extensive 10 Step Pre-screening Process.
- All candidates must submit an application and resumé.
- Each candidate will then submit required documents.
- We then conduct a pre-screening phone interview to ensure the candidate meets the needs of our clients, and the agency’s basic requirements to be considered further.
- Each candidate must pass an extensive pre-screening interview one-on-one with a placement specialist. During this interview, the agency gets to know each candidate and their experience and expertise. (We look for at least 3 years of experience in the industry). Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency builds each candidate a custom profile.
- We conduct professional reference checks on each candidate. These checks are conducted in-house by a member of the Charlotte’s Best Nanny team, and a complete reference report is written. When a family identifies a candidate to hire and a contingent offer is accepted, the family will receive the reference report on the candidate of their choosing. The family will review references, and are able to speak to the references directly ( as we encourage parent to parent conversation).
- Candidates interview virtually and in-person with families who express interest in interviewing them.
- We require candidates to be CPR/First Aid certified before they start their position. Some even have obtained advanced medical licensing such as: CNA’s, RN’s, EMT’s, and even retired MD’s. We provide information on re-certification, if the candidate needs to re-certify.
- Candidates are also required to have their own safe and reliable transportation to and from work, and during work hours. We ask what vehicle they drive during their pre-screening, and verify their license and driving record when we conduct their background check, before hiring.
- The agency then runs a Comprehensive Background Check on the nanny or domestic candidate. This report is run as close to hiring as possible (so we are providing the most up to date information). This national background check includes Criminal Checks (County-By-County), Civil Record Checks, Social Security Verification, National and State Driving Record Checks, Sexual Offender Registry Check, and Security watch list search. *Drug and Alcohol Screening are offered at an additional cost.
- The final step is signing a work agreement with the hiring family. The agency provides each client with a work agreement template to use and sign upon hiring a candidate. This agreement outlines the position, expectations, pay, benefits, terms, and family policies. A signed Family/Candidate work agreement is required to be on file with the agency at hiring. Candidates we place are all willing to sign a work agreement with the hiring family.
Candidates Work Directly for The Family
When a candidate is hired by a family, the family is always the direct employer of the candidate hired. Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency never employees nannies or domestic candidates at any time, we are solely a placement agency. Nannies and Domestic candidates we place are required to be paid directly by the family legally, by W-2 payment. According to the domestic payment laws in the country, 1099s are illegal. The family is responsible for overseeing day to day employment, paying their employee legally, and paying all applicable taxes.
Continued Support
While we do not employee nannies or domestic candidates at any point, we do offer continued support. We are always available to provide support and guidance, as needed. This continued support is offered to all clients and candidates throughout the placement process and throughout the placement, whether the placement lasts one year, or 12 years.

Confidential Nanny & Domestic Placements
You will see many other Nanny agencies that post jobs with the title “High-Profile Family or High-Net-Worth Family looking for a Nanny”. While this type of advertising may seem exciting candidates, it also attracts many candidates for the wrong reasons. We NEVER divulge any type of status or financial information about our clients to our candidates. This method helps protect families confidentiality and the integrity of the whole placement process. All of our nanny and domestic placements are customized to each family’s needs. See more information about our methods on this on our Private Placements Page.
