Childcare is personal.Finding it should be, too.

Tell us what matters to you. We'll show you people who value the same things.

About 30 minutes for nannies, 20 for families. Your answers stay yours.

Career nanniesRegular, long-term careGuaranteed hoursFive at a time

Care that's meant to last.

For career nannies who want stability, and families who want the same. Part-time or full-time, always on a regular schedule.

What usually gets missed

The things that end relationships, on the table first.

Nobody is at their best in an interview. So we ask before you meet.

  • Five at a time, because it only takes one.
  • Schedule and pay up front, before anyone talks.
  • Care style and expectations, before the first conversation.

The Fillmore Five

Five pillars. Five profiles at a time.

Five ways a nanny and a family work together. Move through them to see both ends of each.

Partnership, pillar 1 of 5. Professional to Personal.

  1. Partnership: How you prefer to collaborate, communicate, and work through feedback and disagreements. Spectrum: Professional to Personal.
  2. Autonomy: How you approach responsibility, direction, and initiative. Spectrum: Guided to Self-directed.
  3. Guidance: How boundaries, independence, and emotional regulation are supported through everyday moments. Spectrum: Child-led to Adult-guided.
  4. Engagement: How you balance planned activities, hands-on involvement, and child-led play. Spectrum: Child-directed to Adult-engaged.
  5. Flow: How you approach routines, transitions, timing, and the rhythm of the day. Spectrum: Flexible to Structured.

Compatibility insights help you compare care styles. They're information, not a recommendation — the choice is always yours.
