Babysitters & Nannies Hiring Guides
Hiring guides for babysitters & nannies across every city we serve.
About Hiring Babysitters & Nannies
Discuss nanny or babysitter recruitment around the children’s ages, daily routine and hours when support is needed. Separate childcare from cleaning and cooking duties. Review relevant experience and references, arrange a supervised introduction and agree the responsibilities with the selected candidate.
The guides below cover babysitters & nannies hiring city by city: what to check before you sign an agreement, what a fair market salary looks like where you live, and the specific verification steps we run on every candidate before a profile reaches you. Placements in this category typically start around PKR 40,000 per month, adjusted for experience, live-in status and your city.Each guide is written for that city's actual hiring conditions rather than reused across locations, so read the one for your own city before you start interviewing.
Common Questions About Babysitters & Nannies
Are your nannies trained in infant care?
Many of our nannies have specific infant and toddler care experience. Let us know your child’s age when submitting your request.
Every candidate covered in these guides goes through the same 40-point verification Staffly runs on every placement: CNIC checked against NADRA records, a Police Character Certificate from their own local police station, and previous employers called directly rather than a reference letter taken at face value. For duties, current pricing and the full FAQ for this role, see the main Babysitters & Nannies page, and for salary ranges by experience level and city, the salary guide.
Households hiring babysitters & nannies through Staffly usually have the same three questions before they commit: how fast can someone start, what happens if the first hire does not work out, and who actually pays the staff member. Timing depends on how specific the role is, common roles are matched faster than specialised ones, but most households have a shortlist within a day or two of getting in touch. If the placement is not a good fit, the 6-month free replacement guarantee covers a second search at no extra cost. And the staff member is always employed directly by you, salary paid straight to them, with no ongoing commission taken by Staffly beyond the one-time placement fee.
