How we help parents - real cases
24/7 Nanny with English and Montessori Approach
Request: A family reached out with a challenging request: they needed a nanny who was fluent in English, trained in the Montessori method, and willing to work on a rotating 24/7 schedule — essentially becoming a second mother to the child.
Nanny Details: The search took three months. We conducted numerous interviews and carefully screened each candidate. Just before Easter, we found the perfect match. After two online meetings with the family, the nanny started a trial period, which confirmed a full compatibility.
She is now working successfully with the family, and both sides are completely satisfied with the cooperation.
Request: The mother of a 6-month-old baby contacted us urgently to find a temporary replacement for her regular nanny, who was going away for two weeks. The situation was especially delicate as the mother was balancing work and studies and needed support immediately.
Nanny Details: We quickly found an experienced nanny who specializes in infant care. Their first meeting was held at home, in a familiar environment for the baby. The connection was instant, and the nanny started right away.
The mother was very pleased — the nanny handled everything with care and professionalism. We were happy to support the family in this short-term but important moment.
Request: A mother from Lebanon reached out to us. She spoke Arabic, French, and English, while the child’s grandmother was Russian-speaking. The family wanted to preserve the Russian language in their multilingual environment.
Nanny Details: It was important to find a nanny who was fluent in Russian and also spoke English to communicate with the parents. Thanks to our database, we quickly found the right candidate. After the initial meeting, there was an immediate sense of connection, and the collaboration began almost instantly.
Now, the child is in good hands, and the mother has more time for herself.
At Yayacare we believe in creating a supportive community for both parents and caregivers. Choose Yaya for a reliable, convenient and high-quality service that makes family life easier and more enjoyable. We are pleased to offer a new quality standard in the field of child care and household services.
