Depends on the placement. World Class Nannies only represents nannies that are currently residing in Buenos Aires or other WCN locations. If you plan to move to any of these locations, you may contact us one week prior to your arrival date and we will begin the applications process at that time. For our overseas placements, nannies can apply from all over the world.
Your responsibilities depend on each family’s individual needs and your priority is the child’s well-being. If requested by a parent you may be asked to assist with homework, prepare dinner or carry out other light household duties concerning the child.
You may submit a placement request for any available position. If you meet all of the family’s requirements and we feel you are the perfect match we will send your profile to the family for review. The decision is ultimately up to the family.
he average placement length is 12-months. However, we offer many different full-time and part-time temporary placements lasting 1-6 months. Contact us to find out more.
Nannies who have worked for an employer for more than six months are entitled to two weeks’ holiday. The amount of holiday entitlement increases with the length of continuous employment, up to a maximum of five weeks (35 days).
The employer must pay salary and other benefits to the employee during annual leave. This must be paid in advance, and leave must begin on a Monday.
World Class Nannies acts as an agent to introduce suitable candidates to work as nannies, babysitters or English teachers. The Agency acts as an introduction agency only and does not directly or indirectly employ the applicant.
Clients are responsible for the following: employment contract, registration of employee and paying employee on a bi-monthly basis.
Nannies typically work between 15-30 hours per week, in some cases up to 45 per week.
No! Due to the high demand for English Mother Tongue (EMT) nannies, being a Native English Speaker alone is sufficient for some families. In fact, most families prefer their nanny not to speak the native language spoken in the home when teaching a second language, as it ensures a constant single dialogue between nanny and child.
All languages are welcome! However, we do require non-English Mother Tongue nannies to speak an intermediate level of English to work with us. We work on behalf of families from all over the world that request nannies who speak their native language and/ or a second language, to either maintain the family’s mother tongue or teach a second language to the child. Some of the most requested languages include English, Spanish, French, Italian, German and Portuguese.
The interviewing & screening process typically takes 1-2 weeks. After you have completed the registration process you will begin to receive job offers via email. At this point you may begin to respond to job offers that best matches your experience and the families requirements. Your profile will be emailed to the family and you can expect to be hired within 30-60 days.
