The office is closed for one week over the school holidays from Monday 26th March.  We reopen on the 2nd April and will attend to all enquiries then. Thanks. The SuperNanny team.

Super Nannies will happily advise you in the selection of a suitable domestic nanny to care for your child. We will help you to assess your family’s particular needs and find the right nanny to fulfill those needs.

Please fill out the nanny placement registration form so we can understand your priorities and preferences in choosing a nanny.

What is a nanny?

Her focus is primarily on child care, but she is also prepared to undertake general domestic duties. Usually full time, 40-45 hours a week, depending on whether the position is sleep in or sleep out.

A child carer deals exclusively with the children and she is not expected to do housework.

A domestic worker general responsibilities are to clean and tidy the house and it may also include laundry and ironing.

Expected salary range:

R2800 – R3500 monthly Or R150 – R180 daily. Transport costs may have to be added on top of the salary if you are looking at a lower end of the salary wage.  Bus and train tickets are approximately R80 – R100 a month. Taxis are R5 per trip. If a nanny is using a bus and a taxi service to get to work, her transport costs can easily add up to about R300.

Nanny Placement Services

We screen all candidates extensively, check references and interview them personally. This includes ensuring that they speak and understand English and that they have had experience caring for children.
We will try place trained candidates first. If the candidate is not trained, I am happy to include a 10% discount for our training workshop should you choose one of our candidates and wish to train them.
You may also contact the references yourself if you so wish.

• We will arrange for you to interview 1-3 candidates, or more if needed, in your own house, at your convenience.
• We are happy to advise you on all aspects of the process, e.g. deciding what your needs are, interview questions etc
• We ask that candidates traveling by public transport, to be reimbursed for their traveling expenses, usually R20.  We suggest at least one weeks trial period to see how the candidate integrates with your family and how you relate to each other.
• We will come to your home to facilitate the signing of a contract between you and the employee. I can also provide you with the UIF forms.
• We offer an ongoing mediation and support service to help maintain a positive working relationship.
• We guarantee that during a three month replacement period, should you or the chosen candidate decide to terminate your employment relationship, I will replace her free of charge.
