How to Find (and Keep) the Right Nanny for Your Family with Sarah Davis [96]
Hiring a nanny isn’t just about finding childcare—it’s about welcoming someone into your family’s world. How do you make sure the person you choose not only loves kids but also respects your values, communicates well, and builds trust with everyone in the home?
In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Davis, founder of Olive You Nanny and creator of The Nanny Playbook. With over 25 years of experience in childcare and family placements, Sarah offers a behind-the-scenes look at what really makes a nanny–family relationship thrive.
We cover:
- How to interview beyond the resume and spot the qualities that matter most
- The importance of contracts and what they should include (discipline, boundaries, expectations, and more)
- What to do if your nanny’s approach doesn’t fully align with your parenting style
- Tips for setting boundaries when parents work from home
- Why respect and appreciation are as important as salary
- The nanny’s perspective—what caregivers wish families understood better
- Current trends in pay, part-time vs. full-time, and nanny cams
Whether you’re starting the search for the first time or looking to strengthen the relationship with your current nanny, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you feel confident and supported.
