out about the Boston Nanny Centre!
|
We are often
asked what makes the Boston Nanny Centre special.
We firmly believe in working with you individually.
We are unique in that sense. We focus on each nanny/family's
individual needs, desires, experience and strengths. We present
only those families and nannies we feel will meet your requirements,
thus making your search flow smoothly. Once a match is made,
we continue to be a supportive resource for you, ensuring a
positive experience for all involved. We are also unique in
having no application fee,
and a thirty (30) day trial period
to assure that both the nanny and the family feel comfortable
with their decision.
