We had a sudden childcare change, where our expected long term care from family member for our infant son was no longer available. I was stressing. I hadn't researched anything about nannies while I was pregnant, knowing that we were expecting this family member to be able to help until he went to school. I asked friends. I went into FB groups. I started interviewing some folks who I connected with online, and I was so overwhelmed! As a small business owner and new mom, the process of interviewing and vetting nannies quickly became a huge time suck. Plus, I knew how to hire people in my field of work - I had no idea what to actually look for in a nanny. I heard about the Nanny Edit, and I'm so glad that I did. Kady and her team made it so much easier to navigate this process. They used their expertise to identify the right candidates for me to chat with, and coordinated all of the checkpoints along the way. I loved knowing that the team was handling this search while I was handling everything else! We landed on an incredible candidate and Kady helped us negotiate a mutually beneficial offer that everyone felt good about. We're so excited for her to start and would have never found her without Kady. Amid a very stressful shift for our family, the Nanny Edit made our lives easier and helped us find a long-term partner to support our son's growth and development! read more

We can't speak highly enough of Kady and Pacific Elite Nannies! Finding a nanny is such an important search and can feel overwhelming, but Kady makes the process personalized, efficient and professional. We have worked with her for a few years now and it is always a pleasure to engage with her. She understands how special a nanny is to a family and that finding the right person is the priority. She is communicative, knowledgeable and taps into an incredible resource for her families. Pacific Elite Nannies is an excellent partner for your childcare needs!! read more

I've known Kady and her agency, Pacific Elite Nannies, for a couple years now and they're such a great agency. I already had a long term nanny family when I first met Kady and attended her agency's INNTD event back in 2023. While I wasn't looking for a position at that time, I was able to see how professional, experienced and knowledgeable Kady was from the very start. I knew that when I was on the hunt for a new position, I'd be looking to work with her agency. Flash forward a couple years and I was just placed with Pacific Elite Nannies last month. Kady was there to support me every step of the way. She was quick with her responses and helped prepare me for what was to come. I'm so happy with my placement. The nanny family Kady matched me with couldn't have been a better fit! We align so well. I can't wait to watch our connection flourish over the next few years. I would highly recommend working with Pacific Elite Nannies and would be happy to return when I'm back in the market for a new job. read more

Where to begin. I have known the owner of Pacific Elite Nannies, Kady since she was a young adult (around 10 years). She worked at Shoreline Christian school with me where I was the Account Manager. She introduced me to her heart and her passion (ending human trafficking). Even at her age she has ALWAYS been passionate, loving and caring for children and what she believes in. I watched her interact and care for my 3-year-old son while he attended the school. I watched her not only care for his developmental needs, his physical needs but emotional needs as his father was deployed to Iraq and really struggled. When i tell you I can speak love into this woman's character as I have LITERALLY watched her grow up. When Shoreline closed, I knew there was only one person I would entrust my 3 small kids to that would help them AND ME through this time of deployment. Even as a mother I know I have boundaries of how far I can deal with a ton of kids LOL. But Kady has NEVER wavered in her love, her encouragement, her heart, her character when it comes to children. Even after she moved to California from our home here in Texas, we always kept in touch. We even spent time with her in OC as she showed us true Cali love. So when Kady opened Pacific Elite Nannies, i knew she found her calling. I knew that not only would she be great at what she does, but i knew the families were going to get unparalleled quality. Kady's passion for protecting children will show in her selection qualifications for her nannies as well as the families. Your decision to use Pacific Elite Nannies will afford your family lifetime security and a life long extended family. You could not ask for a more ELITE family of Nannies. Our family will always be grateful Kady!! read more

See all

I have been a nanny for 6+ years and I can't believe how much easier the job searching process was once I got in contact with Kady! She found me my dream job with an amazing family and I'm so grateful to her for that! I would without a doubt, recommend Pacific Elite Nannies, to parents in search of a nanny and to nannies in search of their perfect job! read more

I found a wonderful family with the help of Pacific Elite Nannies and am very grateful for their help. I felt well taken care of by their owner Kady and really liked the opportunity to answer their thorough question catalog as I believe it gives the searching families the right insight when looking for a great fit for their needs. Moreover, I love how much Kady is doing for the nanny community and how she educates parents and nannies alike about the right guidelines in this work field. Usually the Nanny has to do a lot of explaining, negotiating and educating on how things are legal and correct and I had to go through many mistakes to finally learn for myself- let alone stand up for it. If you work with Kady directly, you can avoid all my mistakes. She has everyone's back and is an expert in the field. As a nanny, please do yourself a favor and ask her for help. As a parent, you will be paired up well and can avoid many mistakes and trial and error with the wrong candidates. read more

My wife and hired Kady to help us find a nanny for our 18-month old daughter. We interviewed several and chose one. She worked for us for 7 days and quit without notice. Kady requires 10% of the first year's salary up front. She has done almost nothing to help us with back up childcare or finding a replacement. Her business model does not create the incentive for her to find a replacement if the first placement doesn't work out. I would not recommend this service to anyone. read more

I highly recommend Pacific Elite Nannies and their staff to all families looking for trusted child care placements. Kady is a pleasure to work. read more

We are moving cross country to Orange County, and after joining many Facebook groups for childcare came across Kady and her business, Pacific Elite Nannies. I can't say enough about their professionalism and helpfulness - in what could have been a highly stressful situation, securing qualified nanny candidates for our 3 children and only speaking to them over zoom, we felt in incredible hands. Kady pre-interviewed all of our candidates, serving up very qualified candidates well-ahead of our start date. We now have a fantastic nanny set to start with us right when we arrive - and we have Kady to thank for it! read more

We are so grateful for the services provided by Kady with Pacific Elite Nannies! Kady was personable and professional and she walked us through every step of the process, and she was easily accessible and always there to answer our questions. Kady worked tirelessly to find us the ideal fit for our family long-term! We are now so excited to welcome our new nanny into our family! If any of my friends were to tell me that they need to look for a new nanny I would tell them their first step should be to call Kady! read more

Kady is wonderful. She has helped us with two placements and has been wonderful each time. She is very professional, kind and responsive! I would definitely recommend Pacific Elite! read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about Kady and Pacific Elite Nannies. I have been a Nanny for over 10 years and Kady has been my agent and has helped me navigate the process of finding the right Nanny / family match. She is a knowledgeable professional who guides you from finding prospective families, preparing for the interview, and breaking down the contract, making it work for both the Nanny and the family. I have also been on the other side of the business and I have used Pacific Elite Nannies to help find nannies when I need to add to our nanny team, or is we need backup care. Please whether you are a family looking for the perfect child care professional that will help you in your day-to-day life with your children, or if you are in Nanny, who needs someone that knows this business, and looks at you more than just a product, and will help you find your forever family, do yourself a favor and call Kady at Pacific Elite Nanny she the best. read more

Like many new parents, my husband and I were reluctant to hire a nanny and leave our children with a stranger. After extensive research, I decided to call Pacific Elite Nannies. They were very nice, completely understanding of our situation, and were extremely helpful in finding us a nanny that we were comfortable with and best fit our needs. The nanny we ended up hiring was professional, charismatic, knowledgable, and on time! Overall, the entire process was simple and straightforward, and gave us comfort knowing we had found an agency we could trust. For us, and I'm assuming for many parents, trust is of the utmost importance when it comes to childcare, and I can say with 100% confidence that Pacific Elite Nannies trusts the nannies and babysitters they employ to represent them with integrity and professionalism, and I trust Pacific Elite Nannies to provide me with childcare providers that best fit the needs of my family. We will definitely be using them again and I encourage anyone looking for a babysitter or nanny to give them a call! We have now used their service multiple times for many different reasons and they have always been reliable and extremely helpful. I am truly impressed. read more

My favorite nanny agency out there! I used the service because I needed temporary work before moving to Australia. I was worried no one would need a nanny for only one month, however, Cady matched me with the perfect family who happened to need a temporary nanny before their full-time nanny began. The interview process was very simple and easy. The family was amazing, and the baby was the cutest, most precious kid I have ever nannied! The mom, Miranda, was super helpful and spent the whole first day with me with the baby to make sure I was comfortable which was super helpful. The family was very generous and I felt like it was the perfect fit for me! I am very grateful Cady matched us up! I highly recommend Pacific Elite Nannies! read more

I highly recommend Pacific Elite Nannies. Kady has done such a wonderful job placing a lovely nanny into my home. We recently moved so its been a process and a change for my little ones and my new nanny has been absolutely fantastic and understanding. I really appreciate the time the agency took to understand my needs and place the perfect nanny in my home. Its been such a blessing, truly. My 1 and 4 year old absolutely love our new nanny. Thanks again Pacific Elite Nannies. read more

This is by far one of my favorite agencies in Souther California. I've been a nanny for over eight years and it's so hard to find a person who strives to pick the perfect family with the perfect nanny; Kady does just that! She works hard to get to know the families, so a nanny is well prepared for what to expect from the family. Thank you Kady for all your help! :) read more

It's been a pleasure working with Kady. She has been so helpful in all aspects, and is very easy to communicate with. I would recommend Pacific Elite Nannies to anyone looking for a nanny or looking for someone to nanny for. You will receive excellent 5 star service from Kady!! read more

I can't express enough how much I am impressed by this business. We travel a lot for work and I have dealt with trying to find sitters in strange cities all over the US, Canada, and Australia the last couple of years. Pacific Elite Nannies is the gold standard, and I haven't found an equal to this company in terms of nanny quality and services (not to mention peace of mind leaving my kids with a stranger!) anywhere else. Kady is extremely easy to communicate with and everything was super easy on our end; sitters are prompt and professional, and our kids loved the outings they went on. We look forward to continue using your services whenever we visit the OC. read more

Pacific Elite Nannies is the company for you! Kady is constantly going above and beyond to take care of the people in her life and her commitments. She is honest, trustworthy, and reliable. She handles her matters with a professional demeanor and strives to find the best outcome for everyone involved. These qualities are exactly what I would look for in the owner of a nanny organization. Kady truly cares and this shines through in how she handles each client. I would highly recommend working with her! She'll take care of you like you're her own family. :) read more

I don't usually post reviews, but I had to because I was so happy with the service Kady provided! I was in town with my family for a medical procedure, and I found out a day sooner that the procedure was scheduled for 5am! I searched online in a panic, and found Pacific Elite Nannies. She arranged for a babysitter to come stay with the kids as they woke up, so that my husband could accompany me to the hospital. Sharifa came to the hotel room precisely at 5am, and we were instantly at ease about leaving her in charge of our girls (6yrs and 4yrs). When we got back, the first thing my younger daughter said was "mommy, can she stay?" She was fun, attentive and the kids adored her. Thank you, Pacific Elite Nannies for coming to our rescue!! read more

I was so happy to have found them through a friend. I had a last minute situation where I totally needed someone, and they were on time, professional, and I totally trust them. I will for sure be using them in the future. The kids were very happy with Kady...100% a wonderful experience! read more

I'm a career nanny, and Kady placed me with an amazing family. It was a great fit. She coached me thru any questions I had and parents, babies (twins!) and toddler are all happy as can be. Kady is thorough and professional at all times. read more

Pacific Elite Nannies helped me find a last minute back up sitter in such a short time, they helped me find the perfect sitter who was not only caring but personable.. so incredibly happy!! read more

I recently had a newborn and didn't realize how much help I would need. I have a hard time trusting people especially with having a newborn but as I came to know Pacific Elite Nannies, I felt completely comfortable. The owner truly takes her time to listen to all of my needs and concerns and made me feel at ease with my decision to hire part time help. Kady found me a lovely nanny with 10 years experience including multiple certifications in the childcare related field. Our nanny has been with us for a few weeks now and has gone above and beyond and I'm so thankful for everything the agency had to offer. I was a bit skeptical to pay a big chunk of money for the placement fee but after having gone through care.com and sittercity, I truly believe the agency was the right way to go and it was. Thanks again for all you do! read more

I can't recommend Pacific Elite highly enough. We were visiting from out-of-state for a wedding, and were connected up with Kady through a coworker. Kady was wonderfully helpful, super professional, and set us up with Tori for two nights of babysitting. Tori was just as amazing. She had a great rapport with the kids, and did an awesome job of taking care of them. Again, can't recommend Pacific Elite enough, and plan on using them again in the future. read more

I can't give high enough praise to Pacific Elite Nannies. Kady really understands what families' needs are and her nannies are first rate. As a grandmother, I was hoping my daughter would stay home. When that didn't happen, I was skeptical about the nanny that would be caring for 6 month old twins. Kady was understanding, thorough, and as particular as she would be if the babies were her own. As a seasoned nanny herself, she knew the right questions to ask and found the perfect fit for the family. My daughter and her husband have complete confidence in her choice. The nanny has truly become part of the family. Seeing the babies' faces light up whenever they see her is the proof I need that they love her, too. Pacific Elite Nannies was an excellent choice and I highly recommend Kady and her company. read more

The BEST! I was so nervous trying to find the right babysitter for my family until I found Kady's company. Pacific Elite Nannies has done the heavy lifting by thoroughly vetting all their employees with background checks and CPR training. Kady has been such a joy to work with and spoke with me at length (while she was on vacation, none the less!) getting to know my family so she could place us with the best fitting babysitters. It's been such a relief knowing my family is in great care so my spouse and I can enjoy date nights. Thank you, Kady! (and huge thanks to Catherine and Pauline - our amazing babysitters!) read more

I was a single dad looking for a nanny and honestly had no clue how to find one or what to expect. Pacific Elite Nannies went above and beyond and helped me out tremendously. I needed a nanny I could trust 100 % and the owner personally took the time to go over everything in detail, so I had a clear understanding of how a nanny agency works. She sent me quite a few nannies with excellent resumes. We have found our perfect nanny, thanks to Pacific Elite Nannies! I highly recommend their services and I can't thank them enough. read more

Ive been placed into a wonderful home by Pacific Elite Nannies and I couldn't be happier with their services. Kady took the time to really get to know me and figure out my need and wants and to match me with the perfect family. I was very impressed with their interview process because it shows she truly cares about the nanny placements rather than just handling business. I'm so thankful I found my perfect family and caring for the most precious baby ever. I look forward to working with Pacific Elite Nannies for many years to come. read more

In this crazy world, it is so difficult to find trustworthy people to watch your children. Pacific Elite Nannies is a great service to watch my little guys. They are professional, kind, understanding and prompt. When I have to go to work at a moments notice, they are there for me. They help my kids with homework and keep them busy with activities. I trust them and that is the most important thing. My kids love them and enjoy their little outings. Great company. I highly recommend PEN. I'm a very cautious Mother and these folks have earned my trust 100%. Fantastic with children. read more

I contacted Kady very last minute to care for my kids- otherwise I would have to cancel or take the three of them along to a day's worth of medical appointments- she promptly responded and found an excellent provider for them who went above and beyond and the kids adored! read more

I was referred to Pacific Elite by someone I trust. I'm glad I contacted them! They were able to locate a babysitter for my 3 nephews (3,7 and 10 years old) who were visiting from out of state with very short notice and over a holiday weekend. We were very happy with Shea who was kind and patient with the kids. She even brought some games for the kids to play. I definitely plan on using them again! read more

Organized. Thorough. Trusted. I am a mother of 3 and have been a caregiver for many years. I use them for extra nanny-ing jobs from time to time and I can say as both a mother and a caregiver if you need reliable care you can trust or need matched up with great families to care for this is it! read more
