IT IS IMPORTANT TO US THAT YOU ARE HAPPY WITH THE NANNY INTRODUCTION SERVICE WE HAVE PROVIDED AND YOUR DECISION ABOUT WHO TO EMPLOY
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Once you have met and interviewed a suitable nanny for your family, the next step is to put forward a formal offer of employment. The offer lays out the basic agreement which can be used to draw up a contract of employment. Once an offer of employment has been made by you and accepted by the candidate, the core agency work has been completed and an invoice will be issued for our services.
You have 8 weeks from the start of employment to put a contract of employment in place. Until then, the offer and acceptance process provides a solid agreement ensuring there are no misunderstandings prior to drawing up and signing a contract.
Established in 2006, with an impeccable reputation, we are confident that our nannies are committed dedicated individuals. In the unlikely event that your nanny pulls out of an agreement without good reason, they will consequently be suspended from the agency for a period of 6 months and will not be put forward for alternate positions until this time has lapsed. A repeat of this circumstance will result in permanent removal from the agency register.
Our nannies are fully aware of the commitment required when accepting an offer of employment. Once an offer is formally made and accepted, both parties are committed to moving forward together. From this time,we will no longer advertise availability of your role and we will not put the nanny in question forward for any roles that compromise their commitment to you.
WE GUARANTEE THE FOLLOWING:
- The nannies we have put forward are fully registered with the agency, reference and security checks have been carried out for peace of mind and we will disclose any adverse information shown on a DBS Enhanced Disclosure.
- All nannies are fully briefed with a job description based on the information you have provided. The agency will contact suitable candidates to inform them of the position being advertised and their suitability for the role but will only put forward a candidate if they are truly interested and committed to their application.
- Once an offer of employment has been accepted by one of our registered nannies, we will not put them forward for compromising roles prior to the start of employment and during employment until there is a reasonable need (i.e a change of contract/circumstances that mean employment cannot continue).
- We will stay in contact with both parties during the first four weeks of employment to ensure both parties are happy and help iron out any issues where necessary.
- If for any reason employment doesn’t work out, please contact us at your earliest convenience as you may be entitled to a refund or replacment nanny in accordance with our terms and conditions.
