Starting a Nanny Agency

Starting A Nanny Agency – let Best Bear help you!

Best Bear regularly gets asked for advice about starting a new nanny agency, so we have launched a new service whereby we can provide you with the expert knowledge, advice and resources you need to start up your own agency.
 
The foremost thought when starting your own nanny agency should be that you are getting involved in the `childcare’ Industry. Dwell upon the words `child’ and `care’, and let it register in your mind that should you cut any corners when setting up and especially running your business that in an extreme case a child may suffer. Once this is borne in mind then you can concentrate on your next steps which is where Best Bear can help you.

Running a nanny agency, the matching of families to nannies, the `behind the scenes’ work, sometimes involving `out of hours’ work can be hard work and time consuming, however it is also incredibly rewarding and, hopefully, incredibly successful.
 
Our service costs £168 and for this fixed fee we offer:
  • an initial telephone conversation with you to establish where you are in the process of setting up your new agency and how we can best support you
  • email support and telephone support for eight weeks following the initial telephone call
  • guidance through the process and the steps you need to take when starting your new business. Everyone's needs differ but there are a range of areas where we can provide you with assistance and support, including discussions on the following areas:
- Launching a website
- Advertising
- Potential costs involved
- Client booking
- Data protection
- Interviewing nannies
- Nanny salaries
- Business insurance
- Contracts
- Insurance
- Terms and conditions
- Agency placement fees
- CRB Checks
- Nanny tax
