Securing nanny gigs is easy.

Pros

This is a nanny agency that connects you with families for either long-term, short-term, or on-call nannying and babysitting. The agency does all the set-up, all you have to do is either meet with the family for a meeting (long-term care) or just make a phone call to introduce yourself and show up to the family's house (on-call). The office staff is very responsive and gets back to you quickly. They seem to genuinely care about the nannies they employ. Getting emails or app updates about families who want a sitter can be more convenient than trying to manage your own personal clients, depending on your needs.

Cons

They want you to use their app which allows families to book you directly. The caveat here is that the app is not the easiest to use, and you're really not allowed to deny a family's request once they've made it. Therefore, you have to keep your available hours up-to-date at all times. It doesn't pay well compared to traditional, word-of-mouth babysitting gigs. Long-term clients pay a premium for the agency's services, but that money doesn't end up in your paycheck. Sometimes client-families will pay a bonus to long-term care providers, but that is at their discretion.

Pros

Great team environment. Trust their tutors with a lot of responsibilities. Give great support for their tutors. Flexible working hours. Match tutors to students.

Cons

Sometimes the work does slow down, meaning the pay isn't as steady as I would have liked.
