A Note From Austin:
When I started Triangle Nannies, one thing was clear: finding the right caregiver changes everything. As a mother myself, I've seen how the perfect nanny partnership lets families truly thrive- parents can focus at work knowing their children are in wonderful hands, while kids get the dedicated attention they deserve from a grown up who is truly present with them (and happy to be there).
Finding this match shouldn't keep you up at night. That's where we come in. We've spent years building relationships with the Triangle's most qualified nannies - the kind of caregivers who turn everyday moments into opportunities for growth and joy. While other agencies might send you dozens of resumes, we take a different approach. We personally meet and thoroughly screen each candidate, only introducing you to nannies who truly fit your family's needs and values.
After placing over 1,500 nannies with local families in the 15 years we've been around, we've learned that the right match goes beyond credentials and schedules. It's about finding people who are genuinely good for each other. These relationships are delicate, nuanced, and play such a big role in the health of a family.
Your children deserve nothing less than exceptional care. I'd be honored to be part of this search process, and I'm excited to introduce you to the Triangle's most exceptional household teammates!
Let's start with getting a few frequently asked questions out of the way!

Welcome! We've gathered our most common questions to help you learn more about our nanny placement process. Can't find what you're looking for? Just reach out - we're here to help.
Where is your team located?
Our team is located right here in North Carolina. Most of us (including our founder and her family) are located in Raleigh but we’re spread out across Durham and Chapel Hill, Tennessee, Louisiana, Ohio, and Indiana.
What’s the next step if we want to get started with a search?
1. Take the first step by filling out our family application here. This tells me all about you and what you're looking for, and gives us helpful insights so we can make the most of the discovery call we'll have.
2. Join us for a discovery call where I'll answer questions about our process and roster. Please note: I have a placement fee of 20% of the first annual years' gross pay and our candidates are typically targeting at least $30/hr. A search through my team usually lasts 4-6 weeks and clients usually only interview 1-2 candidates before offering their role to an individual I've sourced.
3. If you'd like to move forward with representation by our team, we'll send over startup links. This includes an MSA, a link to pay our launch fee ($500), and an intake form that will give us more information about your family. Next, we will schedule a follow-up call with you and your partner (if applicable) to run through the ins and outs of your family's values, who you're looking for, and ask any follow-up questions we have about your intake form.
4. I will submit your job description for your approval and edits. Once you're happy with how this looks, I will begin shortlisting candidates for your role and my team will do a deep dive to suss out whether they'd be a perfect fit for the position. We do both outbound recruiting and source from candidates already cleared through our agency. A substantial amount of marketing goes into each search that we run.
5. You'll be presented with a selection of candidates I believe would ace the role. Typically our clients make a hire within the first 3 candidates sent over. We do insist on a 3 step interviewing process. A virtual interview, an in-person interview, and a paid trial.
6. Once we have sourced the candidate you'd like to move forward with, you'll edit our provided hiring templates (attorney reviewed, revised, re-reviewed, updated, and ever-evolving) and we'll submit your offer to your selected candidate.
7. Once your offer is accepted, we'll send you your final invoice with our team. As mentioned, we charge 20% of the first annual year's gross pay.
8. We will attach a one year replacement policy to the individual you are hiring and you'll have access to our back-up care after the placement is secured. On a case by case basis, we may offer back-up care and temporary coverage while we're sourcing your long term hire. If this is needed, please inquire.
Do I have to exclusively work with your agency if I list a position through you?
Absolutely not. Some of my clients cast a wide net and work with many firms. That said, most of my clients list exclusively through me. The process is draining in many ways and in an effort to optimize your time, I would recommend chatting with a few agencies and moving forward with the firm that feels like they understand your families values and needs the most.
Can Triangle Nannies help us find a caregiver with specific qualifications?
Absolutely! We're more than happy to list your job opening, incorporating any specific qualifications you need, whether it's fluency in Spanish, an LPN certification, or experience working with children or adults with disabilities.
Is Triangle Nannies able to accommodate short-term placements?
Our firm is able to work with your family on almost any request. We have a dedicated team of back-up care providers who can step in to fill a need almost immediately and also have access to a pool of caregivers who prefer to work shorter commitment positions for us.
