EnglishWhat Is A New England Nanny and What Services Does It Offer?
Updated
A New England Nanny is a household employment agency serving New York's Capital Region. Since 1991, it has placed caregivers and household staff with local families, covering child care, non-medical senior care, housekeeping, corporate backup care, and hotel or event care. It works with two audiences: families looking to hire, and caregivers looking for placements. The agency says it screens candidates with thorough background checks and serves communities across Albany, Saratoga, Schenectady, and surrounding counties.
Services offered
The agency groups its placements into five categories:
| Service | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Child care | Full-time or part-time live-out nanny care, nanny shares, babysitting, after-school tutoring, and more |
| Senior care | Non-medical support such as companionship and running errands |
| Corporate backup care | A professional caregiver sent to an employee's home so the employee can go to work |
| Housekeeping and other services | Home cleaning, meal preparation, transportation, and other help around the house |
| Hotel and event care | Care coverage for hotel guests and events |
Note that senior care here is explicitly non-medical — it covers companionship and errands, not health or clinical services.
Who it serves
Families in the Capital Region who need a nanny, babysitter, tutor, senior companion, or household helper. The agency positions itself as a way to skip the search-and-vetting work: it says candidates have undergone thorough background checks, and it frames the agency route as offering better-qualified matches, security, time savings, and better retention.
Caregivers looking for positions. The agency says it always has open positions and offers caregivers: professional treatment from staff, qualification of families and matching to the caregiver's skills, pre-screened families to reduce safety concerns, and guidelines on negotiating a compensation package.
Coverage area
The agency describes "extensive Capital Region coverage" and lists these counties:
Albany, Columbia, Fulton, Greene, Montgomery, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Warren, Washington.
It also names specific communities it serves, including Clifton Park, East Greenbush, Guilderland, Loudonville, Niskayuna, Saratoga Springs, and Slingerlands.
How to decide if it fits your situation
- If you need child care in the Capital Region and want a vetted, pre-screened placement rather than sourcing candidates yourself, this is the agency's core service.
- If you need non-medical senior companionship or errand help, it's covered — but look elsewhere for medical or clinical home care.
- If you're an employer wanting backup care for employees, or a hotel or event organizer needing on-site care, those are listed service lines.
- If you're a caregiver, the agency presents itself as a matching service that screens families before introducing them.
