About adventure nannies candidates, how do you find candidates for nanny positions.

We actively recruit for every family we work with and receive more than 10,000 candidate applications from across the country every year.

Less than 5% of candidates who apply to Adventure Nannies make it through our rigorous qualification process.

What are a travel nanny’s typical duties?

A travel nanny can do anything a long-term nanny can do! In addition to basic childcare, some sample duties include: packing/unpacking, researching fun and educational things to do with the kids in each city, and helping with schooling on the road. Some nannies are also able to provide part-time personal assistant help.

How do I set expectations before the trip?

We will provide you with a temporary employment agreement, which you should thoughtfully complete and review with your nanny at least a week before your booking. Invite and model open communication to get started on a great relationship with your travel nanny!

Does a travel nanny need time off or breaks?

Travel/temp nannies are very flexible and adaptable, but do need scheduled downtime to re-energize. Depending on the length of your trip, a day off may not be required. If you are visiting an exciting location, a day off is a great perk to offer your nanny!

Does a travel nanny need a private room?

Private accommodations are strongly recommended for you nanny – whether it’s their own hotel room or a private room in a vacation home. Should your child require overnight care, it is important to clearly communicate these expectations to the nanny in advance to ensure they are comfortable with these accommodations. 

What do I do if I am having issues with the nanny I selected?

Should you experience difficulty in working with the nanny you have hired, please contact our team for specific resources to assist you in resolving many common employer/nanny issues, and are able to recommend tips for setting open lines of communication.

About the Search and Screening Process

How long will my search take.

We have a large network of travel and temp nannies across the country. To ensure our candidates will be available, we encourage you to begin your search at least two weeks in advance, although we are sometimes able to accommodate families who are operating on a shorter time frame.

How do you screen your candidates?

Each candidate has at least two interviews with our staff, including your dedicated placement manager. We also check at least three professional references and conduct an online and social media screen.

Once you’ve extended an offer of employment, your new hire will undergo a thorough background check in compliance with applicable laws: ● Criminal Background Investigation ● DMV Driving Record ● Social Security Number Verification ● Sex Offender Registry ● Civil Restraining Orders ● National Wants and Warrants ● Education Verification ●  TrustLine Verification (California)

Is Adventure Nannies, itself, vetted?

We are! The nonprofit organization, Association of Premier Nanny Agencies , vets and supports nanny agencies in the United States and around the world. Since the nanny agency industry is largely unregulated, APNA members (such as Adventure Nannies) undergo a rigorous review of all documents, materials, and agreements to ensure they are operating ethically and within the law.

About Placement

Can i hire a temporary nanny without traveling.

Absolutely. You can hire a nanny for any length of time for whatever reason you need.

Some families hire temporary nannies to fill in for their long-term nanny’s parental leave or paid time off, while others bring in a temporary nanny to help with work or moving transitions.

What if things don't go well after hiring my employee?

We make every effort to help you make the right hiring decision the first time around. But we also understand introducing new caretakers to your children can be stressful for all parties involved. That’s why our team stays in touch after placement to provide guidance as needed on how to preserve a good relationship with your new employee. Often, employer/nanny concerns can be resolved with communication and counseling. 

However, due to the temporary nature of travel and temporary roles, we are often unable to replace the candidate you hired if things do not work out for any reason.

I need a nanny for longer than a few months. What are my options?

For placements longer than 6 months, we recommend using our  long-term services.  

About Agency Fees and Nanny Compensation

What are your agency fees.

Our travel/temp nanny placements begin with a $250 to $500 launch fee and require a placement fee of 25% of total contract compensation (depending on length of employment).

What is the typical hourly rate for an Adventure Nanny?

Travel or temporary Adventure Nannies typically make $25-$35+ an hour, plus overtime if applicable. 

What expenses am I expected to cover for a travel nanny?

You are expected to cover the nanny’s transportation costs, meals, and accommodations. Many families also provide cash or pre-purchase job-related entertainment expenses, like museum admission or movie tickets.

How do I handle taxes for my employee?

Your family will be the nanny’s employer, so you’re responsible for tax withholding. A nanny cannot be a 1099 independent contractor. 

We’re happy to introduce you to our expert payroll partners, HomeWork Solutions.

Why do I have to pay my nanny legally? None of my friends do.

The candidates we work with are professionals and expect to be legally employed by your family—the same way someone working for a business would expect to be employed.

It’s becoming less and less common for families to pay their nannies illegally (or more politely called “under the table”), as the IRS is taking more note of these infringements. Hiring a nanny illegally can often result in serious tax and legal consequences for families and also withholds vital protections for nannies, including unemployment and workers compensation benefits.

Additionally, nannies who are paid illegally are unable to verify their professional income and often struggle when applying for rental housing, mortgages, student loans, and auto loans.

We are always more than happy to talk to your friends and explain the risks they may be unknowingly taking on for both their family and their employee by neglecting to pay legally.

Hire A Travel Nanny

What is a travel nanny?

There are two main types of travel nannies: temporary travel nannies contracted for a single trip and full-time travel nannies .

The first will be a temporary hire for one trip – it may be that your current nanny is unable or unwilling to go on the trip with you, or it may be that you need additional support to aid your full-time staff during the trip.

The latter, a full-time travel nanny, is right for busy families who travel frequently. This person will work with you in your home city but also be ready, willing, and able to travel with your family as needed, and on short notice. Depending on how rigorous the travel schedule is, families in this position may consider hiring 2 ROTA nannies to accommodate extensive travel – this will prevent nanny burn out.

Either type of travel nanny will be well versed in packing for the children, managing young ones while in transit, and will excel at keeping calm and solving problems in unfamiliar places. These nannies can plan children’s itineraries for new cities, come up with creative travel activities, and offer flexibility in terms of scheduling. Many will speak a second or third language; if you travel to the same country frequently, it may be wise to hire a bilingual nanny who speaks that country’s language – both to help ease travel logistics and to help your child build new language skills.

Contact us now to learn more about the process of hiring an experienced travel nanny.

If you’re looking for a travel nanny job, please visit our job board.

Why should I hire a travel nanny?

We recommend clients hire a travel nanny to remove some of the stress from your vacation; a travel nanny will give you the ability to explore the city on your own, attend to business, enjoy a night out, and visit any attractions you wish, without having to consider age restrictions. A travel nanny will give parents peace of mind and will help children to have a more enjoyable, educational, and fulfilling vacation.

If you would like to learn more about other types of nannies,  visit this page .

Travel Nanny FAQ

How are expenses handled when traveling with a nanny.

Just like at home, staff should be paid their regular rate plus any overtime worked; in some instances, a daily travel fee may be appropriate. Our best advice is to discuss fees and hours before leaving for the trip. Try to be as realistic as possible when talking to your staff about the hours needed while traveling (they will likely be more than at home) – and ask the staff to prepare for some unexpected additional hours. 

The employer should cover all travel, accommodations, and meals – in many cases, families will give employees a set daily stipend to cover meals and miscellaneous expenses. Make sure you consider the cost of living in the destination city and accessibility; for example, if the meal options in the area are more expensive than in your hometown, that should be taken into account when deciding on the stipend amount. Finally, note that travel time is always paid – time in the air getting to and from the destination should be billed as regular working hours.

I love my current full-time nanny, but she can’t travel with us. What are my options?

While the first choice is always that a familiar caretaker travels with the family and the child, it is not always possible. In these cases, we recommend hiring a temporary travel nanny to help with this trip. If possible, have the nanny spend time with the child before embarking on your journey to build a bond at home before traveling together. In the future, be sure to discuss travel expectations with all new hires.

What are some tips to ensure smooth travel for everyone?

Our number one tip is to aim for clear communication early and always. So many problems can be solved or avoided by managing expectations around schedule, accommodations, and compensation ahead of time. For more tips on traveling with staff, visit our blog here.

Your Step-by-Step Guide to Hiring the Perfect Nanny or Babysitter

Not sure where to get started with hiring a nanny or babysitter? Our friends at Sittercity have provided us with a guide to finding the support you need.

Use code MOMSLA25 for 25% off the Sittercity Monthly Premium Subscription plan.

You may have a picture in your head of what a nanny is , but in actuality, the job of a nanny can look wildly different from family to family. Nanny is a broad term that simply means: in-home child care support on a regular basis. That’s it.

What’s great about that, is parents like you can tailor your search to find the right person with the right schedule for your family. If you’ve never hired a nanny before, here’s how.

The Step-by-Step Guide to Hiring a Nanny or Babysitter for your Kids

Step 1: understand your family’s needs.

It may sound obvious, but you can’t find what you need if you don’t know what that is yourself. However, that may be easier said than done—especially if this is your first time looking. Never fear, there’s help!

The Sittercity Planning Assistant

Take this 2-minute quiz to send you down the right path of what kind of child care help you need. Sittercity has taken the time to think about what questions parents should be asking themselves, and your personalized result will guide you onto the next step in the process.

Make a List

Have each parent spend 5 minutes writing down everything you could possibly need help with about the house and with your children. Compare your lists to see what you’re on the same page about. It’s important for both parents to be involved in the child care search from the beginning.

Step 2: Begin Your Search

Finding the perfect sitter begins with creating a Sittercity job post that attracts the best talent for your family. Here are a few tips to help the job post you write to attract the candidates best for your family:

Offer An Appropriate Rate

It’s important to know what the going rate is for babysitters and nannies in your area . Make sure yours is competitive.

Write a Descriptive Title

Use clear communication from the start. The title is what will stand out when nannies are searching for jobs—make sure yours does.

Make Your Expectations Clear

Use your results from the Planning Assistant and the list you made to clearly outline not only what kinds of responsibilities the nanny will have, but also what kind of energy you need this person to bring to your home.

Personalize It

Adding in details about what your kids are interested in or insights into your family culture will also help to attract the professional that will be the right fit.

Step 3: Screen & Narrow Down Your Options

Screening is the most important part of your child care search process. While it would be nice to have a nanny as quickly as possible, you need to make sure that the person you’re hiring to care for your child is someone you can trust and is a good fit for your family. Here are screening tools on Sittercity:

Detailed Profiles

When you receive applicants for a job or search local caregivers, closely review their experience, education, certifications, and bio.

Parent Reviews

See what other Sittercity parents who’ve hired a particular caregiver in the past have to say.

Messaging with your top options to make sure the practical information (schedule, rate, etc.) is in alignment before booking an interview.

There’s no substitute for the give-and-take of an interview with a potential babysitter or nanny. You can have your more in-depth questions answered and also get a feel for the sitter as a person.

Run Background Checks

For extra peace of mind, you can run background checks on the candidates you’re interested in—both criminal and motor vehicle. See what each check covers here .

Reference Checks

Reach out to the references listed on the caregiver’s profile to gain additional insight, and don’t hesitate to request more references. Here are some examples.

Step 4: Set Up Your HR Team

Becoming an employer is not something that families set out to do when looking for help with child care. Totally understandable. But when you’re providing an opportunity for someone to earn an income of $2,700 or more in a calendar year , that money is subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes.

It may seem tempting to pay your nanny “under the table” and you both can avoid the cost and hassle of paying taxes. However, when you take into account the financial and legal risks of avoiding taxes and the benefits of taking the proper legal steps, paying your nanny “under the table” is really just not worth it.

That’s why Sittercity partners with GTM Payroll Services . They know that the responsibilities of hiring a nanny are a full-time job in and of itself. They offer a suite of benefits to make this process so much easier for busy parents. This includes:

• Comprehensive Payroll Services—Including FREE Direct Deposit for your nanny
• Tax Filings (Quarterly, Annual, State, Federal)
• Workers Compensation
• Secure 24/7 Access to All Your Data
• Employee Online Access to Pay Stubs
• Compliance with Tax and Labor Laws
• Tax Savings Health Reimbursement Accounts
• Timekeeping App
• Retirement Plan

That’s the beauty of it—they handle all the details and you can reap the significant tax savings benefits of a Dependent Care FSA and the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit.

Step 5: Set Everyone Up For Success

Introducing them to the family.

Just as you’ve had time to get to know the new nanny through the interview process, the rest of the family (especially the kids) will need time to get familiar with and adjust. You know best how your children do in new situations with new people. But we also have some tips for making the transition a smooth one.

Monitor Your Relationship

Once you’ve hired a nanny, it’s important to make sure that they continue to be a good fit for your family by keeping communication open and frequent.

Daily Check-ins

When you get home, ask for a brief progress report on how the day went.

Ask Your Kids

Ask your children open-ended questions about their day, but try not to judge or lead during the discussion. Respect your children’s feelings and always take them seriously, especially negative comments.

Schedule Regular Performance Reviews

There’s definitely value in making sure you and your caregiver are on the same page, and it’s important to keep the lines of communication open. A performance review is one way to do that.

Ready to get started? Start with Step 1 and make sure you know what your family needs. Then post your job on Sittercity and you’ll be well on your way to hiring your first nanny.

“We have 3 daughters and we were looking for a tutor for the younger two: 4 and 6 years old. Our main requirement was for a young, smart governess, ready to travel with us 5-6 times a year, an English person with clean and correct command of the language.

Within a week, the agency had the PERFECT candidate! Over 7 months of regular classes with Jessica (the name of our Mary Poppins :)) our children learned to speak English fluently! It was incredible!!

We are very grateful to EED and recommend them to all our friends and relatives concerned about the language development of their children!”

Babysitting FAQ

How much does it cost for babysitters to use sittercity.

Babysitters can create detailed profiles, search and apply to jobs, message with families, and book interviews for free on Sittercity. Babysitters have the option to pay for background checks to run on themselves to stand out to families. However, families can also offer to pay for background checks on babysitters as well.

How much do babysitters make?

According to the latest Sittercity data, babysitters in the US typically charge $17.50 an hour. But your hourly rate can vary significantly depending on the cost of living in your area, the duties and responsibilities in the job description, and your state’s minimum wage laws. There’s no perfect calculator to determine your rate, but it’s important to factor in everything you have to offer a family.

Why are babysitters taxes important?

There are a lot of risk factors with getting paid “off the books,” but there are also a lot of benefits to getting paid “on the books.” Those benefits include verifiable income, a legal employment history, unemployment benefits, social security and medicare benefits, and worker’s compensation.

What career opportunities do I have as a babysitter?

A babysitter is a child care provider who doesn’t have a regular work schedule with a family. There is a wide range of possibilities in the specifics of a babysitter position and career. Because your work with each family is part-time, you can work with multiple families at the same time.

Considering a job offer in Moscow

Hi everyone I am just recently separated from my husband and part of moving on is finding a job and making new friends. I have been offered a live in nanny position in Moscow which pays pretty well but I am concerned with how I will cope there with no Russian. Any advise and tips would be much appreciated before I make a decision. I am a little shy at first so will this make it hard for me to make friends? I am so used to being part of a couple that everything feels very daunting. Thanks for you help

Barbara, you need to be careful with some of the nanny jobs, word of warning. I know some people in this role and all is well but my advice to you would be to join a school here where the money will be less but the network will be wider and many places can offer you an apartment, try for a 6 month contract so you are not locked in, there is a lot of work for native English speakers here, do a CELTA course and you will meet all sorts of people here. The language can be a challenge so make the effort to learn some Russian, the natives will thank you for it, udacha (good luck)

Along side who is attending the Switzerland summit, keep an eye out for who is not.

Russia won’t be there (it’s not invited) and China has taken a controversial wide pass. Pressure to urge China to attend only seems to have driven it deeper into the arms of Russia.

Speaking at the Shangri-La Dialogue on June 2 Ukraine’s President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, accused China of "working hard" to prevent countries from participating in the Switzerland summit.

China pushed back. Its foreign ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning told reporters: "Not attending it does not mean not supporting peace."

Ukraine believes China has leverage over Russia and could impose conditions to force Vladimir Putin to end the war. But for China this expectation is too much, it has not bought-into the Zelenskyy-led peace formula, so China has walked away.

The country was already facing stinging criticism from the West for backing Russia. Without China’s booming trade with Russia, it grew by 60% last year to $240bn, President Putin would not be able to continue his war in Ukraine.

There are reports of Russian elite arranging Mandarin lessons for their children, turning to the East while Western sanctions turn Russia into a fortress.

With two wars to deal with in Ukraine and Gaza, the US is bogged down and unable to focus on Asia. That plays to China’s advantage.

It is forging new friendships with countries in the Global South and many of them see the world differently.

As India’s External Affairs Minister, S Jaishankar, said two years ago: "Europe has to grow out of the mindset that its problems are (the) world’s problems." 

That's all for our coverage for this evening. 

Scroll back through this blog to see the day's updates. 

A high-profile Ukrainian combat brigade has allegedly captured dozens of Russian soldiers amid fighting in the Kharkiv region. 

Footage shared by Ukraine's 3rd Assault Brigade appeared to show the soldiers sitting in a school conference room. 

The Ukrainian brigade said the troops were taken prisoner during combat operations around the northern Ukrainian town of Vovchansk. 

Social media figures had previously reported substantial numbers of Russian troops surrendering in the area last week after counterattacks by Ukrainian infantry assault units. 

The Khortitsiya Regional Command also claimed more than 60 Russian soldiers had been captured in the area in less than a week. 

The Euros begin tomorrow, and for most teams the tournament is the first thing on their mind. 

But for Ukraine's national team, they are also focused on their country's fight for freedom. 

Thirteen players from the team have taken part in a video calling for the world to support Ukraine. 

As each state where they were from, images of destruction in each city flash up. 

"Our hometowns would like to host the Euros, but now they are fighting not for the tournament but for freedom," the video says. 

The Russian advance on Kharkiv came at a "high price" for its troops, a NATO official has told European Pravda. 

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: "Russia likely suffered losses of almost 1,000 people a day in May, which is quite an astronomical figure." 

They were referring specifically to fatalities. 

Russian forces have advanced less than 10km into Ukrainian territory and have not taken control of the city of Vovchansk. 

The US defence secretary earlier said Russia's advance was slowing and the frontline stabilising, partly thanks to countries lifting restrictions on Ukraine's use of donated weapons on Russian territory. 

The US president will skip the planned G7 dinner tonight, diplomatic sources have told our international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn . 

The official dinner is being held by Italian President Sergio Mattarella in the Swabian Castle of Brindisi.

Joe Biden is skipping due to "a busy schedule and tiredness", according to Italian news outlet la Repubblica. 

He will return to the US tomorrow for an event in Los Angeles.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Joe Biden are now addressing the issue of Chinese and Russian cooperation.

The US earlier expanded sanctions against companies and individuals accused of helping Russia's war effort, including entities in China. 

Beijing has repeatedly denied it is supplying Russia with weapons, however it has been accused of providing critical components for Russia's war. 

Mr Zelenskyy says he was told by President Xi Jinping that China would not sell weapons to Russia. 

It's not clear when this conversation took place. 

Meanwhile, Mr Biden says China is helping Russia in the war through technology and production.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy acknowledges the impact of the months-long delay to US weapons support, which was caused by Republicans blocking a major aid bill. 

He says the pause in supplies had allowed Russia to conduct an offensive on the northeastern region of Kharkiv, but Ukraine had managed to stop it. 

Meanwhile, Joe Biden made clear the US had not changed its position on allowing Ukraine to use American weapons to strike inside Russia. 

The US recently said it would allow Kyiv to use such weapons to strike Russia only for the purpose of stopping the attack on Kharkiv. 

We're hearing now from Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who are holding a joint news conference after it was revealed the US and Ukraine have signed a major 10-year security agreement. 

The US president repeats his message that he will "stand with Ukraine" and says it is a "reminder to Putin that we are not backing down".

Mr Biden says lasting peace for Ukraine must be underwritten by Ukraine's ability to defend itself.

The agreement includes major commitments from Ukraine to implement reforms required by both the EU and NATO in order for Kyiv to join. 

Steps taken by the G7 today will help Ukraine to succeed in its war against Russia, Mr Biden says, and leaders also discussed concerns about China supplying Moscow with "materials for its war machine". 

Mr Zelenskyy says today is a "truly historic day" and that the security deal is the strongest agreement since Ukraine's independence. 

He thanks Mr Biden for his leadership and says the deal will create jobs in both the US and Ukraine. 

A Russian journalist covering the war has been killed by Ukrainian shelling on a village in eastern Ukraine, according to a local mayor.

Valery Kozhin, who worked for Russia's NTV television channel, was reportedly among a group of journalists hit in the strike on Holmivskyi. 

NTV earlier reported three of its staff, including Mr Kozhin, had been injured and taken to hospital. 

Holmivskyi is in the Donetsk region of Ukraine.
