How Matching Works

How We Find Your Perfect Family Match

Finding the right family is just as important as families finding the right nanny. We use behavioral science, human judgment, and real listening to connect you with families whose values, care style, and expectations align with yours.

How We Match You With the Right Family

We Listen to Your Care Style

We start by truly listening to you. Our questionnaire captures what matters most: your caregiving philosophy, your experience with different ages, your communication style, and what you're looking for in a family. This foundation makes everything else possible.

We Analyze Compatibility

We use the Big Five personality framework to understand your caregiving style and what kind of family environment will bring out your best work. Forced-choice questions reveal your authentic priorities—not just what you think you should want.

We Match on Real Life Fit

We match based on what actually matters: the family's location and schedule, the children's ages and needs, their parenting style, and your experience. Real compatibility is about how you fit into their actual daily life.

We Review Every Match Personally

Real people on our team review every potential match for you. We catch the nuances algorithms miss—the human factors that make relationships work and ensure you feel confident about the families we connect you with.
