temporary & SUmmER placements

 

Temporary care placements are designed for families who require help on single occasions or extended periods of up to 3 months. This also includes special events, date nights, last-moment scenarios, scheduling emergencies, and the like. Nounou Nanny locates and provides qualified babysitters who meet the following criteria:

  • Have clean background and reference checks

  • Have at least 3 years of childcare experience

  • Are CPR and First Aid certified

  • Are at least 20 years of age

Temporary nannies (or babysitters) provide the same customized care and household support as permanent nannies. It is up to the family to determine what level of responsibility their temporary help will take on.

Our available babysitters come from a variety of backgrounds. From college students to career nannies, teachers, and other professionals, all of our sitters are experienced in childcare. Unlike permanent placements, where families hand-select a nanny over the course of 3-6 weeks, temporarily placed childcare providers are assigned to the family by the agency.

In the Washington, DC Metropolitan area, the average nanny earns between $24-30/ hour depending on their responsibilities and the number of children in their care. The hourly rate for special event care is $25+, with a booking minimum of 4 hours.

Please allow at least 48 hours for us to locate and confirm a temporary babysitter for your family's needs.

SUMMER PLACEMENTS

Summer nanny placements are ideal for families who need support for their children between the months of May and August, while most children are out of school. They assist with summer activities and are able to travel with your family when on vacation. Planning domestic or overseas travel with your family and sitter? Be sure to reference the CDC’s COVID-19 travel page for requirements and information.

We provide the same peace of mind and exemplary childcare providers for your family during the summer months. Please consider making arrangements for your new summer nanny no later than April, so that we can find the best fit for your needs.
