Nanny shares, the best of both worlds

The Sylvester Family
We chose a nanny share because it allowed us to make sure that our child was getting great, individual attention from a person that we could trust while helping us to manage costs. We couldn't afford to have one nanny, and found another family that was in a similar situation and shared our values.

"Teacher Jayna was my girls' swim instructor. My children are very people cautious but they warmed up to her quickly. By the end of our 6 week session, Teacher Jayna was a constant mention in our household. With my children, Jayna was warm, patient and knew how to connect with them by playing games and making the swim session fun. We were sad when our time ended but will be back to look for her when we are ready to swim again."
