Looking for a Nanny in Amsterdam? TFA quickly helps you find the perfect match
As a parent in Amsterdam, finding the right Nanny or Family Assistant can be a challenging task. There is a huge shortage of reliable, experienced and trained Nannies and Family Assistants and as a result, it is not always easy to find the right match. Consequence? The Nanny or Family Assistant isn't a good fit for the family after all and you're a lot of money, stress and hassle down the road to then start looking for a nanny again. We show you what the challenges are and how it can be done in a pleasant way. Because we wish everyone the peace and quiet of a nice Nanny or FA to support your busy family life.
There are many Nannies in Amsterdam, but the quality is not always good
We often see people looking for a Nanny or Au Pair on their own, such as via via or abroad. Especially Au Pairs who work as freelancers and hire themselves out are not always well educated and lack some guidance and coaching during their job. As a result, the quality you expect from a Nanny is not as good and friction can arise. You also have the chance that the Nanny ends the cooperation quickly while you wanted to build a lasting relationship after a long search.
Doing the screening process yourself takes a lot of time
As a busy parent in Amsterdam, you don't want to wait too long for your Nanny or Family Assistant to get started. If you choose to do the entire application and screening process yourself, you often quickly find out that this takes an enormous amount of time. And because you have no experience with this, you don't always know what to look for. This can result in the match collaboration not turning out to be quite what you expected. At The Family Assistant we take the entire application process off your hands. We work exclusively with Nannies and Family Assistants who have been extensively screened by us.
TFA works with Dutch-speaking or multilingual Nannies from Amsterdam and surrounding areas
You want to find someone who is not only loving and caring, but also a good fit for your family's unique needs. We do not bring in Nannies from abroad, but work with Nannies and Family Assistants from your own city or immediate area. The Nannies know the city and the Dutch culture and can guide and educate your kids as an extension of the parents themselves. Also, our Nannies and Family Assistants usually speak English well, making them a good match for expats in Amsterdam as well.
No room for a live-in Nanny?
The Nanny comes to your home at agreed times (for example, full-time or for 32 hours a week) and sleeps in her own home, unless you want to agree otherwise. This makes it feasible for parents in Amsterdam who live in an apartment to hire a good and nice Nanny, without having to give up a room right away.
