Nanny Agency in Apex, NC
The Standard You'd Expect. The Nanny You've Been Looking For.
That kind of match doesn't come from a search engine. It comes from an agency that takes the time to understand your family and then does the work to find the right person.
Triangle Nannies has been placing professional nannies in Apex homes since 2012. We accept only 4% of the caregivers who apply to work with us. We stand behind every placement with a full-year replacement guarantee. And when we introduce you to a nanny, it's because we've already decided she's a strong fit — not because she was next in the queue.

We Know Apex
We've placed nannies across all of it:
Haddon Hall, Bella Casa, and the historic downtown core — established Apex families, long-term placements, often multi-child households with complex scheduling needs
West Apex and Beaver Creek — newer construction, often first-time nanny employers, frequently asking for guidance on compensation and nanny taxes
Ten Ten Road and the Apex Peakway corridor — mixed professional families, many commuting into RTP or Raleigh, needing reliable coverage around a longer commute
Salem Street and the downtown Apex core — walkable, community-oriented families who want a nanny comfortable navigating downtown on foot
Apex Friendship and the surrounding school zone — families managing packed after-school activity schedules and multiple kids' calendars
We also regularly serve families along the Apex/Cary border and out toward Holly Springs.
Apex Families Are Different. Our Approach Reflects That.
Long-commute coverage.
Many Apex parents commute into Raleigh or RTP, eating into the hours before and after work. We match families with nannies who can reliably hold down the morning and evening windows, not just fill hours in the middle of the day.
Packed after-school schedules.
Apex Friendship and other zoned schools mean many families are juggling sports, music, and tutoring on top of standard care. We look for nannies comfortable managing a full activity calendar, not just supervising downtime.
The "first nanny" family.
Many Apex families are hiring a professional nanny for the first time, often after outgrowing daycare or a patchwork of babysitters. We spend extra time walking through compensation, NC household employer law, and what to expect from the relationship.
New construction, new routines.
Families in the newer subdivisions pushing out toward Beaver Creek and West Apex are often still building their local support network. We help fill that gap with a nanny who becomes a steady, known presence in the household.

Our Placement Process for Apex Families
1. Share your family's story. Fill out our family questionnaire. We'll reach out within 24 hours to schedule a 30-minute discovery call.
2. Deep-dive consultation. A 60–90 minute session where we learn about your household — routines, values, expectations, non-negotiables, and the things that are hard to put in a job description.
3. We build the search. We draft a job description that actually attracts the right people, then tap our network of pre-vetted Triangle nannies. For bilingual or specialty placements, we go deeper into our extended network.
4. Meet your matches. We present 2–4 candidates we genuinely believe fit. Each comes with a full portfolio and our honest assessment.
5. Interview, trial, decide. We provide the interview guides, reference templates, and trial-day frameworks. You focus on whether the fit feels right.
6. Make the offer. We help structure compensation, draft the contract (tailored to North Carolina), and handle any negotiation.
7. Placement and ongoing support. The match doesn't end at hire. We check in, provide backup care, and remain your partner for as long as the placement lasts.
Most Apex families move from first call to placed nanny in 4–6 weeks. Specialty placements (bilingual, certified, specific developmental experience) may take slightly longer — and are worth the wait.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a nanny cost in Apex, NC?
Professional nanny care through our agency typically ranges from $22–$35 per hour, plus our placement fee. For bilingual nannies, certified newborn care specialists, or caregivers with specialized training, rates trend toward the higher end of that range. Families in Apex who pay competitively retain their nannies longer — and in this market, a great nanny has options.
Can you place a bilingual nanny in Apex?
Yes. While Apex sees less bilingual demand than markets like Cary or Morrisville, we regularly place Spanish-speaking and other bilingual nannies for families who prioritize language exposure. We'd encourage you to start your search early if bilingual care is a priority, since the pool of qualified bilingual caregivers is smaller than general demand.
Do you work with international families or families new to the US nanny system?
Yes, though it's a smaller share of our Apex placements than markets like Cary or Morrisville. Many Apex families hiring their first nanny — whether relocating from elsewhere or moving on from daycare — appreciate the walkthrough on US household employment law, standard compensation ranges, and what a nanny contract should include.
What neighborhoods in Apex do you place nannies in?
All of them. We regularly place nannies in Haddon Hall, Bella Casa, downtown Apex, and the newer construction pushing out toward Beaver Creek and West Apex. We also serve nearby families along the Apex/Cary border and out toward Holly Springs.
How quickly can you match us with a nanny in Apex?
Standard placements typically complete in 4–6 weeks from first call. Specialty placements — bilingual, certified newborn care, experience with developmental needs — may take an additional 2–3 weeks. If you need emergency coverage while we search, our backup care network can often mobilize within 24–48 hours for active members.
What makes Triangle Nannies different from Jovie or other Apex agencies?
Jovie is a franchise built for volume — babysitters and on-demand care across a national network. We're a boutique agency built for long-term placement. We accept 4% of applicants, spend real time understanding your family before we introduce anyone, and back every placement with a full-year guarantee. If you're looking for a reliable date-night sitter, Jovie works. If you're looking for the person who will become a trusted part of your family for the next three years, that's what we do.
