  • Already Mid Search?

    If you’re actively looking for a nanny, you might be realizing what many parents do at this stage: “This is harder than I expected.” The time, effort, and energy it takes can feel like a full-time job. In fact most families spend 40–50 cumulative hours on the process.If you’re short on compatible matches, struggling to turn applications into interviews, or unsure what to do next, Your Nanny Now can help. We’ll walk you through how to troubleshoot your current search, get things back on track, and avoid sinking even more time into a process that’s already demanding enough.

  • Already Hired a Nanny?

    If you’ve found a nanny you feel good about, that’s a major milestone! The next steps are just as important as the search itself. Completing reference and background checks, creating a clear employment agreement, and setting things up legally will protect both you and your nanny and lay the foundation for a lasting working relationship. Skipping these steps is the most common reason nanny arrangements fall apart early. This course includes our Vetting and Reference Guide, a Sample Employment Contract, and a step-by-step Tax Guide with all the necessary forms. With these tools, you can move forward with clarity, professionalism, and peace of mind.

Feedback From Our Families….

  • “This course was incredibly informative! I had no idea how much there was to review, consider, and offer as the employer. Don’t even get me started on the taxes. Mind blowing! The videos were clear and easy to follow, and Stefani has such a calm, approachable voice that made it all easier to absorb. As someone totally new to this process, I found it incredibly helpful and eye-opening. I completely recommend this course!” - Jamie

  • "We worked with North Sound Nannies directly to find our nanny and their hiring methods WORK. We’d been looking for a nanny for months, and even used a different agency and still came up short. Once we started the search with using the Your Nanny Now methods, we had a nanny in 10 days. That was over 5 years ago and we still have our same nanny. She is PERFECT. We consider ourselves blessed and grateful to Stefani at North Sound Nannies each and every day that we have our nanny in our lives." - Ashley

  • “We thought we had a clear vision for what we wanted in a nanny, but we hired two on our own and had to let both go almost immediately. We just didn’t feel confident leaving our baby. With the Your Nanny Now methods, we gained a better understanding of our priorities and found a nanny who truly met our needs. It worked. We feel lucky to have such a great fit, and most importantly, we feel confident and happy.” — Zach

  • "We hired a nanny using Your Nanny Now and she has been working out great. She’s been building great relationships with the kids and certainly making life easier for us!" - Jackie

  • "We had some challenges keeping a nanny because our toddler has autism and had some really challenging behaviors and tendencies at the time. We felt certain that daycare wasn't right for him but also didn't know how to find a nanny that could help us. We found North Sound Nannies through a google search (thank god) and the hiring process helped us locate several nannies with relevant experience, up for the task. We found our perfect nanny and she's been with us over 3 years now. If you're on the fence about purchasing Your Nanny Now, my advice is to go for it. You and your kids will be so glad you did!" - Anne

  • "We were in a bit of a childcare pickle when our parents suddenly weren't able to watch our kids. We didn't need a nanny long term, just until the start of preschool (about 4 months). We were unsure whether or not we would be able to get a nanny for that short of a term but with the guidance from Your Nanny Now, we got someone asap!" - Emily

  • “The hiring methods we learned from Stefani (owner of North Sound Nannies) led us to our wonderful nanny. We really enjoyed our nanny from the get go and immediately thought she would be a great fit for our family. She was warm and clearly passionate about childcare, and her references were glowing. We have settled into our routine perfectly and the kids love having her. We are so grateful to have connected with Stefani. We would be lost without our nanny!" - Sydney

  • "Before connecting with North Sound Nannies, we had hired a nanny who fell through after we’d invested a lot of time and money in our nanny search. It was a huge hit to us and left us in a total bind. Your Nanny Now helped us secure childcare really fast and not only that, our nanny is incredible. I am so glad we found this invaluable resource." - Mel

  • "We are really enjoying working with our nanny, and things are going great! We feel settled in and safe with her which was one of our top concerns and priorities as parents of a newborn. The hiring process was simple and we felt confident that we were in good hands using Stefani’s hiring methods." - Michael
