How quickly can you place a caregiver?

For ongoing nanny placements, we typically present matched candidates within a few days. For last-minute and same-day care, we can often have a screened caregiver to your home the same day you call — it’s one of the things families have counted on us for since the 1980s.

How do you screen and vet your caregivers?

Every caregiver we refer is screened through TrustLine (California’s caregiver background check registry) and LiveScan FBI/DOJ fingerprinting, completes an in-person interview, and provides verified professional references. We also confirm current CPR and pediatric First Aid certification.

Which areas do you serve?

We serve families across all nine Bay Area counties: San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Sonoma, Napa, and Solano.

What does it cost to work with an agency?

Fees vary by the type and length of care you need. [VERIFY] We’ll walk you through transparent pricing during your first conversation — there are no surprises, and no obligation to move forward.

Are you a licensed agency?

Yes. Bay Area 2nd Mom, Inc. is a California-registered, bonded placement agency and a member of the International Nanny Association (INA).

Vetting you can feel good about

What makes our screening different

We don’t just collect résumés. Every caregiver we refer clears a layered, in-person vetting process before they ever meet your family.

LiveScan fingerprinting

FBI and California DOJ background checks via official LiveScan — not a quick online lookup.

TrustLine registration

Cleared through California’s dedicated caregiver background-check registry.

In-person screening

We meet candidates face-to-face to read warmth, judgment, and fit — the things a form can’t show.

CPR & pediatric First Aid

Current certification confirmed, so the person with your child knows what to do in an emergency.
