Does a nanny need special training and/or certifications?
We strongly believe that all childcare providers should take a training course prior to their date of hire. That is why we provide a free training class to any of our nanny candidates who are placed through our agency. Upon completion, our nannies are granted both a nanny certification as well as a newborn care specialist certification. Our nannies must also get their Infant and Child CPR certification. FYI: For families intending to hire a nanny without our consultation services, please go to www.pctinstitute.com for more information on training courses and certifications. You may also visit your local chapter of American Red Cross to inquire about CPR certification classes.
