Frequently Asked Questions

Share when you need care, whether you want live-in or live-out, and your location. You get your first matches straight away. You can then optionally add your children's ages, the help you need, language preferences, and what matters at home. Matches update as you go. Every nanny has completed structured assessments so you see their caregiving style, communication preferences, and professional readiness before you meet.

The results help families understand professional readiness and fit. You can see scores and summaries on each nanny profile.

We guide families through verification steps including ID verification, reference checks, and compliance with UAE regulations. Our platform provides tools and templates to help you verify candidates. Every nanny completes structured assessments so you have objective information on readiness and caregiving style alongside your own checks.

You can sign up, share your needs, browse nannies, and get matched at no charge. When you are ready to contact candidates, a one-time Hiring Pass unlocks contact details and hiring tools for 90 days.
