About Us

 

Founded in 2008

South Bay Nannies has become one of LA and Orange County’s leading nanny referral services.

We’re 100% owner managed and our success stems from the fact that we love what we do and we take our work personally.

 

Our philosophy is simple.

We put relationships before profits. At South Bay Nannies we have a genuine desire to be known for our excellent service levels, integrity, and dedication to the families we serve.

Local, and growing.

We are proud to represent a high quality childcare solution that is valued by like-minded families and industry professionals. Despite our name, we have a strong following among families and nannies that has led us to work on the Westside of Los Angeles and in Orange County. Our presence continues to grow in these areas.

Nanny Placement in Orange County, CA

 

Orange County Spoke, We listened

Despite the name and brick-and-mortar office in Redondo Beach, South Bay Nannies has, since 2008, always done business in Orange County! Our OC clients tend to be professional families with serious needs for the highest quality, professional childcare and an agency that understands these requirements. Over the years South Bay Nannies has consistently delivered the same high-quality services afforded to our Los Angeles-based clients and we maintain our own extensive database of top-notch, Orange County, and San Diego-based professional nannies.

We’d be delighted to earn more family’s loyalty in Orange County, and we welcome all inquiries, thank you!

For all Orange County nanny placements, both permanent and temporary, please email Nigel@SouthBayNannies.com and/or Emily@SouthBayNannies.com or call our offices at 424-247-8507.

 
 

Testimonials

We're overjoyed to share the incredible feedback from our families about their experience with South Bay Nannies

South Bay Nannies is stellar! If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Nigel and his exceptional team helped me find my dream job! They paired me with a family that has become a beautiful addition to my life. Nigel took his time getting to know me from all aspects of life. He inquired about my nannying style, education, experience, personal background, core values, salary expectations, and current hobbies. He listened & matched me with the perfect fit! The team at South Bay Nannies leaves no detail unattended. They are an amazing, caring, and impeccable company. My deepest gratitude & highest reviews!

Highly recommend South Bay Nannies! Nigel and Emily were very helpful in walking us through the process to interview/hire a nanny for the first time. Their insights helped us to narrow in on what it was we were looking for in a candidate and then lined up a great slate of candidates that fit the bill - and with a variety of profiles and personalities so that we could find exactly the right fit. They were patient and supportive through the process and we would absolutely work with them again.

Highly recommend South Bay nannies! We have used them the last 2 summers when in the LA region and visiting family. They have quickly found us awesome people to help us be able to work remotely w/o worrying about gaps in coverage while away. They are super responsive, flexible, and so easy to work with.

Frequently Asked Questions

FROM PARENTS

If you are considering hiring a nanny or becoming a nanny, you might have some questions about the position or the process. We’ve compiled some of the most common questions and answers – below.

  • We don’t believe in asking busy families to fill out forms! Parents (or the family rep) should please contact our office, 424-247-8507 or NigelSouthBayNannies.com.

  • Nannies please email your resume to our team, and follow up with a phone call.

  • We would like to better understand your needs before quoting, we offer multiple services within the childcare space and there are numerous factors to consider.

  • For a permanent hire, we ask for a window 35-40 days notice. For temporary hire, we can place a top notch nanny within 24 hours (depends on the circumstances).

  • Our local network, we have been in business for 15+ years, we have built up a database of over 2000 nannies. We also market some positions outside of our database and we are always open to meeting new nannies who we’ve never met before.

  • Our clients want to see a short list of the top professional nannies in the job market at the time and there are always considerations of security which we address via reference and background checking.

  • South Bay, Westside of Los Angeles and Orange County. We also have a national presence and have placed nannies in multiple states across the country. Our presence continues to grow!

  • Our clients have an excellent retention rate. This being said, we guarantee all permanent placements 90 days
    from the nannies start date.

  • Yes, we use a private vendor to check for criminal history and attain a report from dmv records. This is a full local and national criminal background check which includes a check of the national sex offender index. This process typically takes 3-5 work days. We also register all nannies with Trustline which is a one time, live scan fingerprinting process. For more information on Trustline please visit www.trustline.org

  • We don’t recommend this approach, rather we encourage nannies to assess all employment opportunities as unique
    and arrive at an hourly rate that she believes to be reasonable and fair,

  • Yes, in change for your nanny guaranteeing her availability to your family you will be required to guarantee your nannies compensation. One exception to this is if your nanny specifically asks for unpaid time off of work.
