Candidate Search
We identify qualified candidates whose experience and availability align with your role.

Your Final Match
You choose the nanny who feels right for your family, and we help make the placement process clear and organized.
NEW • BACKUP CARE MEMBERSHIP
When your regular childcare falls through, you don’t have to start from zero.
Our Backup Care Membership gives families access to the Nannies on the Hudson backup-care network when they need short-term childcare coverage, subject to nanny availability.
Example — 8 hours of backup care: $40 coverage fee to Nannies on the Hudson + $184 paid by the family to the nanny. The nanny may vary from one backup-care request to another.
Backup care is subject to caregiver availability and does not guarantee a particular nanny. Families are responsible for paying the nanny directly for hours worked and for their applicable household-employer obligations.

Meet the Founder
Care from both sides of the relationship.
Hi, I’m Krisa, founder of Nannies on the Hudson. I bring more than 12 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter, so I understand what it takes to care for children with patience, consistency, responsibility, and heart.
I’m also a mom, which gives me another perspective entirely. I understand how personal it feels to invite someone into your home and trust them with your child. I know families are not just looking for someone who can do the job — they are looking for someone they can genuinely feel comfortable with.
That is why I created Nannies on the Hudson: to make the search feel more personal, more thoughtful, and more human for both families and nannies.
“I understand the nanny’s role because I’ve lived it, and I understand the parent’s concerns because I’m a mom too.”
Why this matters
A placement should feel right for everyone.
- Understanding what families truly need in everyday childcare
- Respect for the nanny’s experience, responsibilities, and role
- Attention to personality, communication, schedule, and family fit
- A more personal process than simply exchanging résumés
Why families can feel confident
Real experience, clear expectations, and a personal approach.
Choosing childcare is a big decision. Nannies on the Hudson is built around trust, transparency, and the understanding that families need to feel comfortable with both the agency and the caregiver they welcome into their home.

Want extra reassurance before moving forward?
Families may request professional references from Krisa’s prior childcare work as part of the consultation process. Personal contact details are shared only with permission and are never posted publicly on the website.
We also keep the process transparent: pricing is shown clearly, nannies are not charged a placement fee, and families receive an explanation of the placement process before committing to a search.
Support beyond the placement
Personal support when life happens.
At Nannies on the Hudson, I want families to feel supported even after a placement is made. If your nanny is unexpectedly sick or unavailable, I will do my best to help you find a solution. When possible and appropriate, I may personally step in to assist a family in an emergency. Backup care cannot be guaranteed and always depends on availability, but I want every family to know that I genuinely care about what happens after the match — not just the placement itself.

Once the family is comfortable moving forward, we help organize the final placement details and remain available for support after the nanny begins.
Safety & Background Screening
We believe safety should be handled carefully and transparently. Background screening and reference verification are completed only with the candidate’s authorization and are used as part of the family’s final decision-making process.
Any third-party background check fees are separate from the agency placement fee and are paid by the family. The exact screening and cost are communicated before processing so there are no surprises.
Screening availability and scope may vary depending on the candidate and the services requested. Nannies are not charged a placement fee by Nannies on the Hudson.

Choose What Works for Your Family
3 ways to pay
Families may choose the payment schedule that best fits their household. Installment plans change only the timing of payment, not the total placement fee.
- Pay in Full: 100% of the placement fee due at placement
- 3-Month Plan: 50% due upfront, with the remaining 50% divided into 3 equal monthly payments
- 6-Month Plan: 50% due upfront, with the remaining 50% divided into 6 equal monthly payments
- Installment plans require a signed Family Placement Agreement and payment authorization
- The family remains responsible for the full placement fee balance
Backup Care Membership
Extra coverage for the days your regular childcare falls through.
$49.99per month
Designed for member families who want access to short-term backup childcare when their regular nanny or childcare arrangement is unexpectedly unavailable.
How backup care works
- Agency coverage fee: $5 per hour is paid to Nannies on the Hudson for each hour of backup care used.
- Nanny compensation: The family pays the backup nanny $23 per hour for the hours worked.
- Family responsibility: The family is responsible for the nanny employment relationship and for complying with applicable wage, payroll, tax, insurance, and employment requirements.
- Caregiver availability: Backup care is subject to nanny availability. A specific nanny — or the same nanny used previously — cannot be guaranteed.
Example — 8 hours of backup care: $40 agency coverage fee (8 × $5) + $184 paid to the nanny (8 × $23). The $49.99 monthly membership is separate.
Membership provides access to request backup care; it does not guarantee that a caregiver will be available for every requested date or time. The agency coordinates the request and introduction but is not the nanny’s employer.
Placement payment policy: The standard placement fee is 12% of the nanny’s estimated first-year gross compensation, less the $49 consultation credit when applicable. Families may pay in full or choose a 3- or 6-month plan. For either installment plan, 50% is due at placement and the remaining 50% is paid in equal monthly installments. The signed Family Placement Agreement confirms the exact fee, selected schedule, due dates, and payment authorization.
Private agreement by email
How the installment plan works
After your family selects a nanny, Nannies on the Hudson will calculate the exact placement fee and email your Family Placement Agreement for review and signature. The agreement is completed before an installment plan begins.
- Choose Pay in Full, 3-Month Plan, or 6-Month Plan.
- Review the exact placement fee and payment schedule.
- Sign the Family Placement Agreement and payment authorization electronically.
For privacy and security, full card information is never entered on this public website or written into the agreement. Payment details are handled through the agency’s authorized payment processor.
Why families use an agency
You are not just paying for a name — you are paying to get your time back.
Instead of sorting through dozens of profiles alone, families receive a guided search, screened candidates, interview coordination, and support through the decision. The website should make that value visible before parents ever see the percentage.
Frequently asked questions
What families often want to know.
Who pays the agency fee?
Nannies on the Hudson uses a family-paid placement model. Nannies are not charged an agency fee to apply or be considered for placement.
What types of nanny placements do you offer?
We work with families seeking full-time, part-time, live-in, live-out, newborn, summer, occasional, and customized childcare arrangements.
How are nanny candidates screened?
Our process may include application review, interviews, experience verification, reference review, and other screening steps appropriate to the placement. Exact screening details should be confirmed with each family before engagement.
Who employs the nanny?
In a traditional placement, the family is generally the household employer. Families are responsible for complying with applicable employment, payroll, tax, wage, contract, and workplace requirements.
How much should a nanny be paid?
Compensation depends on experience, schedule, duties, number of children, and the position. Many professional nanny roles in the area may fall around the mid-$20s to mid-$30s per hour, but each family and candidate should agree on lawful compensation for the specific role.
Do you guarantee a perfect match?
No agency can guarantee a personal employment relationship. Our role is to improve the quality of the search, provide thoughtful screening and matching, and help families make a more informed hiring decision.
