The Importance of Nanny Reference Checks: What Every Parent Needs to Know

 

We understand that finding the perfect nanny for your family is about more than just matching schedules and skill sets; it’s about trust, safety, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your children are in capable, caring hands.

With over 23 years of experience in the nanny industry, we’ve honed our process to not only find the most qualified nannies but also to ensure that their references are genuine and reliable. 

Here’s a closer look at how we check Nanny references (and catch fake references!) to guarantee that only the best nannies are hired to be part of your family’s life.

The Importance of Thorough Reference Checks

References are a crucial part of the nanny vetting process. Why? They offer insights into a nanny’s work ethic, caregiving style, and reliability. The rise of digital communication and the internet has also given rise to fraudulent references. At The Nanny Solution, we go the extra mile to ensure that the references provided by potential nannies are genuine and from individuals who have directly observed and experienced the quality of childcare they provided.

Combining Traditional Methods with Modern Technology

While talking to references directly provides valuable information about a candidate’s past childcare roles, we’ve integrated an additional layer of verification through technology. When references are provided, we contact them via text message, inviting them to click on a link to verify their feedback. This step serves a dual purpose: it makes the verification process easier and more accessible for the reference and allows us to track the IP address.

Tracking IP addresses helps us identify where two or more references come from the same IP address, raising a red flag that these references might not be legitimate. This method has proven effective in identifying fake references, ensuring that every nanny we recommend to your family has been thoroughly vetted, with verified legitimate references.

Why Legitimate Nanny References Matter to Families

Ensuring the safety and well-being of families and their children is our priority. The families we serve rely on us to provide Nannies who are not only educated and experienced, but who also have a meticulously checked background. Our commitment to verifying Nanny references through both direct communication and technological means ensures that we place only the most trustworthy, reliable, and professional nannies in your home.
