Smart Check

The Smart Check Package is ideal for families who want flexibility and choice, but also a structured process with some commitment built in.

We assist you with:

  • Curated nanny shortlist
  • Video introductions with your shortlisted candidates
  • Organising and confirming trial days
  • Guidance in choosing the nanny you like best


How it works:

  • You receive two nanny candidates via video introduction
  • Additional candidates can be viewed for a $75.00 service package
  • When you book a trial, a a invoice will generated equal to two weeks of the nanny’s salary is due
  • A placement guarantee  is made within two weeks of trial, the process concludes


Example 1: The Johnson Family

The Johnsons live in Sydney with their two children a 3-year-old and a 6-year-old. Both parents work part-time and needed a nanny four days per week to help with school pick-ups, after-school activities, and caring for their toddler during the day.

Through our Smart Check Package, the Johnsons received two nanny candidates via video introduction.


After watching both, they felt one nanny stood out with her background in early childhood education and experience juggling siblings of different ages.


They booked a trial and, as per the package, paid a commitment fee equal to two weeks of the nanny’s salary. The trial went smoothly — the children connected quickly, and the nanny handled both the busy after-school routines and the toddler’s naps with ease.


Within the two-week window, the nanny was placed permanently, giving the Johnsons the reliability and support they were looking for.


Example 2: The Smith Family

The Smiths have two children an 8-year-old and a 10-year-old  and were looking for a nanny to provide care four afternoons a week. Their priority was someone who could manage homework help, prepare light meals, and drive the children to sports practice.


With our Smart Check Package, the Smiths were introduced to two candidates via video introduction.


After reviewing both, they felt neither was quite the right fit for their family’s needs, even though the nannies CV ticked every box in the job description


Instead of walking away, the Smiths chose to view an additional nanny folio and paid the Service package.


 The third candidate had strong experience supporting school aged children and a flexible schedule to cover sports runs.


They booked a trial, and as part of the package, the invoice was generated equal to two weeks of the nanny’s salary. The trial went well the children connected easily, and the nanny kept the  routine running smoothly.  Within the trial period, the nanny was placed successfully.


Example 3: The Jim Family

The Jim family needed a nanny for their two children a 2 year old and a 5 year old for four mornings each week.


They wanted someone warm and reliable who could do school runs and engage their toddler in play-based learning.


Through our Smart Check Package, they received two nanny candidates via video introduction. One nanny’s background seemed to be a perfect match  her CV ticked every box in the job description.


The Jims chose her and paid the commitment fee equal to two weeks of the nanny’s salary to begin the trial.

However, once the trial began, it became clear that even though the nanny matched the role requirements on paper, the chemistry with the children and the family’s parenting style wasn’t the right fit.


Because they were under the Smart Check Package, we stepped in to arrange a replacement nanny at our discretion. The second candidate clicked with the family immediately, managing the morning routine with ease and connecting beautifully with both children. The placement was then finalised successfully.
