How It Works

From first conversation to first day.

We manage every detail so you never have to figure it out alone.

01

Consultation

We learn about your timeline, your children, and the exact coverage you need — whether that's a few weeks or up to three months.

02

Recruitment & Vetting

We recruit, screen, interview, background check, and verify references for every candidate before presenting them to your family.

03

Interviews & Paid Trial

We introduce you to thoughtfully selected candidates, coordinate interviews, and arrange a paid trial so you can experience the fit.

04

Ongoing Support

We remain available throughout the placement to support scheduling, communication, and any adjustments along the way.

Selective by design.

Why families choose Summit.

Fewer than 5% of applicants make it through our process and the ones who do are exceptional.

Thoroughly Vetted

Every candidate completes a resume review, in-depth interview, background check, social media screening, reference verification, motor vehicle record check, and CPR and First Aid verification.

Professionally Experienced

College-educated professionals with a proven track record in private family childcare. Resume, degree, and credential verification included with every search.

Matched Beyond the Resume

Qualifications matter, but so does personality, communication style, values, and overall fit. Your nanny isn't just an employee. They become part of your family's story.

Long-Term Minded

We prioritize long-term placements and screen for professionalism, commitment, and longevity from the very beginning. We screen for commitment the same way we screen for credentials.

Investment

A simple, transparent fee structure.

When Temporary Makes Sense

Coverage for life's in-between moments.

A few of the most common reasons families call us for short-term care.

Maternity Leave

Reliable, nurturing coverage while you welcome a new baby and recover at home.

Travel Coverage

Consistent care for your children while you're away — at home or alongside your family on the road.

Between Caregivers

Seamless coverage when a permanent nanny is on leave, relocating, or your search is still underway.

Seasonal Support

Extra hands during summer, holidays, or any season when your family's schedule shifts.
