Our Experience
Great Lakes Nanny & Postpartum Co. was founded by a seasoned postpartum professional with nearly a decade of in-home experience. We understand the dynamics of private households and the importance of hiring the perfect fit.

We follow a structured, discreet placement process designed to ensure alignment at every stage. We view every family as unique and tailor our search to reflect the specific needs and values of your household.
our Structured, Professional Placement Process

During our discovery call, we discuss your family's schedule, childcare philosophy, household dynamics, and specific needs. This allows us to begin a thoughtful and targeted search for candidates who align with your lifestyle and expectations.

We conduct a comprehensive search, carefully screening, interviewing, and vetting candidates before presenting only the strongest matches for your families needs.

We coordinate every step of the interview process, from scheduling facilitating communication between both parties, gathering feedback, and guiding the family and candidate through each stage of the process.
-
Once you’ve selected your ideal candidate, we’ll assist in extending the offer of employment, coordinate communication and negotiations between both parties, and guide your family and new hire through a seamless onboarding process
-
Every placement includes our 60-day Placement Guarantee. If your placement does not work out for reasons under our Placement Agreement, we’ll conduct one replacement search at no additional cost.
We’re also available post-placement to answer any questions to support a successful transition.
