Extensive Screening & Industry-Leading Background Checks

Our business is only as strong as our reputation, and our reputation rests solely on your satisfaction. That’s why all candidates undergo an extensive screening process, beginning with a phone interview to determine if they meet minimum candidate requirements (see below). If they do, Wee Care invites the candidate to our office for a face-to-face interview and evaluation for placement. Every candidate must complete and sign a detailed application for a nanny or domestic placement. We ask probing questions about work habits, character, reputation and more--all the things that are important to you--and we let candidates know we verify all professional references.

Once you have shown serious interest in a potential employee that you have interviewed, we furnish you with his/her work references. This allows you to ask former employers any specific questions you have, at your convenience. We conduct a detailed background check of all candidates selected for a position, including social security trace, current & past residential history verification, sex-offender registry check, Department of Corrections check, DMV search and additional state criminal background checks.

This takes place before your new nanny or domestic worker even begins her very first day with you. A copy of the background report can be furnished at your request. In short, our extensive screening process and background checks equals peace of mind for you and your family.

"If possible, seek out an agency that belongs to the Alliance of Professional Nanny Agencies, a professional group that requires members to conduct rigorous background checks."
