About Nanny.co
Nanny.co helps families find and compare established nanny agencies, understand local costs and hire with confidence. We are not an agency: we don't employ, recruit, screen or vet nannies.
How we research agencies
- We list only real, operating agencies with their own website.
- Every fact links to its source, usually the agency's own site; claims an agency makes about itself are written as "says".
- We publish fees only when the agency publishes them.
- We never invent reviews, ratings, accreditations or partnerships.
- Profiles are "Independently researched" until the agency confirms them.
Where our local data comes from
- Population, children under 5 and household income: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2019–2023 5-year estimates.
- Pay: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (May 2025), childcare workers by metro area.
- Minimum wages and employer rules: state labor departments, the IRS and the U.S. Department of Labor.
- ZIP codes: GeoNames (CC BY 4.0).
How agencies appear
We show agencies by the areas they say they serve, with agencies that publish fees first. No agency pays for its position; any future sponsored placement will be labelled.
Family requests
A person reviews every request. If you agreed, we share it with up to 3 agencies that serve your area, and they contact you directly. See our privacy notice.
