Our Process
Finding the perfect nanny or household staff member for your family is a deeply personal journey that requires attention, expertise, and care. At Bman, we've developed a comprehensive, step-by-step approach that ensures no detail is overlooked in matching your family with exceptional childcare professionals.
Our proven process combines rigorous candidate evaluation with a nuanced understanding of family dynamics. We know that successful placements depend not just on qualifications and experience, but on personality, values, and the intangible elements that create harmony in your home. Each step in our journey together is designed to reveal these critical factors and guide you toward a childcare solution that truly enhances your family life.
Initial Consultation
In a 30-minute, complimentary consultation, our placement specialists will learn about your family dynamics, children's needs, and specific household requirements. We'll discuss your expectations for childcare support and the qualifications you're seeking in your ideal nanny or household staff member.
We take this initial conversation – and your decision to partner with our agency – very seriously. We are an excellent match for families seeking a thoughtful and personalized approach to finding exceptional childcare professionals. However, we don't end up working with every family who schedules a consultation with us. Whatever the reason, we believe the decision not to work with an agency is just as important as the decision to proceed with one. Careful consideration ensures the right fit and guarantees that you'll be satisfied with the childcare professional we help you select.

Candidate Selection
Following our thorough understanding of your family's needs, we meticulously search our extensive database of pre-screened childcare professionals. Each candidate in our network has undergone initial screening and personal interviews with our team. Full background checks and comprehensive reference verification are conducted once a candidate receives an offer.
We take great pride in our vetting process. Only candidates who meet our stringent standards for experience, reliability, and professionalism are presented to your family. We carefully analyze each potential match, ensuring the caregiver's skills, personality, and availability align perfectly with your specific requirements and family culture.
Interview Coordination
Once we've identified promising candidates for your family, we handle all aspects of the interview process. Our team coordinates schedules, arranges meetings, and ensures a smooth introduction between your family and potential caregivers. Whether you prefer in-person meetings, video calls, or a combination of both, we accommodate your preferences.
We provide comprehensive guidance throughout this critical phase, offering structured interview questions, observation techniques, and evaluation frameworks to help you assess each candidate effectively. Our placement specialists remain available to discuss your impressions and address any questions that arise after each interview, ensuring you have the support needed to make confident decisions about your childcare professional.
Background Verification
Each candidate undergoes our thorough personal screening process. Through in-depth interviews and careful vetting, our experienced team has developed a keen ability to evaluate candidates and verify their experience. We also offer optional criminal background checks and motor vehicle reports for additional assurance.
For families hiring nannies with annual compensation of $75,000 or more, we provide enhanced background verification services that extend beyond standard 7-year look back limitations. This comprehensive verification offers an exceptional level of security and peace of mind for families entrusting their children to high-level childcare professionals.
Our verification process is designed to be thorough while respecting privacy laws and professional standards. We believe this balanced approach helps establish trust between families and caregivers from the very beginning of their working relationship.
Trial Period
Before finalizing your hiring decision, we strongly recommend a paid trial day with your preferred candidate. This invaluable opportunity allows you to observe the caregiver in your home environment, interacting with your children and managing your specific household routines.
The trial period serves as a practical assessment of compatibility beyond what interviews alone can reveal. It provides insights into communication styles, childcare approaches, and how well the candidate adapts to your family's unique dynamics. Your children also have the chance to form initial connections with their potential caregiver in a natural setting. Throughout this process, we remain available to address questions and provide feedback from both parties.
Placement Support
Our commitment to your family extends well beyond the initial placement. Once you've selected your ideal candidate, we provide comprehensive support to ensure a smooth transition and lasting success.
We assist with drafting detailed employment agreements that clearly outline responsibilities, compensation, benefits, and time-off policies. Our team offers valuable guidance on household employer tax obligations and payroll management, helping you navigate the complexities of legal employment. For families seeking additional support, we can recommend trusted payroll services that specialize in domestic employment.
Our placement specialists remain available for check-ins and ongoing support throughout your relationship with your childcare professional. This continued availability helps establish strong communication patterns and provides a trusted resource for addressing any questions or concerns that may arise, fostering a positive long-term working relationship between your family and your childcare professional.

The Intangibles
Many families and family offices come to us after disappointing experiences with childcare arrangements or other placement agencies. We understand that the most common reasons for these unsatisfactory outcomes include misaligned expectations, inadequate communication, and insufficient attention to the unique dynamics of each family. We prioritize transparency about our process, timeline, and the realistic capabilities of potential candidates, believing that rushing a placement inevitably leads to disappointment for everyone involved.
Our goal is to become your trusted childcare partner for years to come, supporting your family through various life stages and changing childcare needs. We believe this long-term relationship begins with a thoughtful, thorough approach to your first placement.
Clients often tell us our consultations feel more like family counseling than a business meeting. We take this as the highest compliment! When it comes to the care of your children, emotions are naturally and rightfully at the forefront. The person you welcome into your home becomes an extension of your family, influencing your children's development and your daily family life. We help you consider both the practical requirements and the emotional dimensions of this relationship, ensuring that your childcare solution aligns perfectly with your family values and parenting philosophy.
