    I met Michelle at a time when I was at a low point in my nanny career and personal life. I had…read morebeen looking for top nanny position and had been on many interviews through other agencies. It seemed like I had landed a few dream jobs only for it to slip away from me. Really trying times. Then I met Michelle! This brings a smile to my face. Meeting with her felt like chatting with a friend. I realized after that this is her skill. She loves people and wants to represent both the families and the nannies. It was a slow period and she didn't have any job opportunities at the time when I signed up with her agency, the perfect placement. After being on the hunt for my top nanny job with a kind family for many months and it wasn't happening I was getting ready to move out of state. I mentioned to Michelle that I'm no longer looking for a position as it doesn't seem like it's going to happen. Michelle didn't give up on me. She called me with 2 opportunities. I went on both interviews and was called back to do a trial for the one that I wanted !! Yay !! Then Michelle negotiated some time off that I needed to take care of a health issue. The family was so wonderful they waited for me ! All I can say everything lined up perfectly. Michelle will always return your call in a timely manner and she always checks in to see how you're doing. I thank God I met Michelle !

    BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you end up using Michelle, it will ruin all other agencies for you…read more I am a professional career nanny. I have over seven years of nannying experience, five years of teaching experience, and more. I have a B/S in childhood development as well as my MAT. When I began my search for a nanny-family in LA, I did my due diligence by shopping around looking at multiple agencies. I found that Michelle had the TOP RATED AGENCY ON MULTIPLE SITES and wanted to take a closer look. I read through every. single. review. I thought to myself, "Really? Every single person had a positive experience with this agency? That's just not statistically possible if she's really working with this many people..." I decided to set up a meeting. I drove to her office where we met to discuss particulars (what I'm looking for, what families are in the market for a nanny right now, what ages/salary/commute/hours I'm looking for) and the moment she opened the door and greeted me with a giant smile and her upbeat, positive attitude, I felt like just working with HER was my perfect placement! Once we started the process, Michelle was completely professional while also refreshingly honest and realistic in her suggestions. She really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for and she only suggested me to families that she knew had the potential to be a "love match!" After looking at a few potential matches, Michelle called me to tell me that she had "found my family!" She said, "This is the one. Please go for an interview and see for yourself." So I did. This is the part of the review where I'm going to get annoyingly emotional. Not only did the family and I immediately "click," but Michelle had made sure that all of our stats were in alignment. The age range, schedule, amount of hours, commuting time, pay rate, expectations and needs happened to all align with what I was looking for. It was LITERALLY the PERFECT PLACEMENT!!!! Coincidence? I think not. Michelle is highly intelligent, professional, personable, understanding, diligent, experienced, communicative, and pleasantly charismatic and I owe my job satisfaction directly to her. Now that I think about it, maybe I should send over a bottle of wine. Thank you, Michelle, for just being so incredibly good at what you do. As I mentioned earlier, when I started this process, I read through every one of your (5 star) reviews and thought, "There's just no way every single review can be five stars..." and now here I am adding one more.

As an insider to the workings of UHNW/Celebrity service agencies, I can attest to the thorough vetting of all Educated Nannies applicants.

I underwent about a month of rigorous examination involving written tests, validating experience, certifications, degrees, licenses, and multiple background checks. Educated Nannies contacted all of my references, asked for additional references, and paced me through a multi-step interview process before being introduced as a possible candidate for my current dream principles. If you are a UHNW individual seeking qualified, competent, and vetted in-home childcare or personal service, Educated Nannies are the premier agency to find your next dream assistant or nanny. Educated Nannies were relentless in their pursuit of the perfect match for their principals, conversed daily with me throughout the hiring process, and celebrated with me once hired. If you're a genuinely qualified candidate seeking UHNW employment, look no further than Educated Nannies for your ideal placement agency. They will present you with a perfectly suited dream position and support you throughout the lengthy hiring process.

    I did a lot of daycare research when I had to start returning to in-person work after a year of…read moreworking from home, and Susanna's was one of the few options that fit our needs at an affordable rate! She offers flexibility with pick up hours for parents that might occasionally have to work past 6:00 and has a part time option since we'll likely be working in more of a hybrid model moving forward. On top of that, she was extremely kind and warm when we did our tour and her daycare is lovely, with lots of toys, activities and a great outdoor play area! Our boy loves the swing in the backyard and starts every day there with a big smile! Our son was born in the pandemic and has basically been attached to me 24/7 his whole life, so I'm very grateful that now he'll hopefully learn a little bit of independence and get to spend time socializing with other kids his age. Susanna has been very understanding of any separation anxiety and sends pictures throughout the day. She's incredibly patient and caring with him when he struggles to nap without me - that continues to be a work in progress, but hopefully he'll continue to improve! Thank you Susanna for taking such good care of our sweet boy and for the incredibly valuable service you provide to families!
