Simple
Think one word, SIMPLE! At The Tailored Nanny we make the process of finding a nanny or home manager so easy. We do all the pre-screening, background checks, reference checks, and interviews for you. We visit with you to get to know your family personally and better understand the culture and dynamic of your home. This allows us to choose a nanny that will thrive with your children and the entire family. We will handpick candidates that we feel meet your needs. Each nanny will have a trial day to work in your home. This will allow both the family and the nanny to connect and get a feel of the environment to ensure the best match. Once the match is made, your custom, tailored nanny is on the way and you’ve got the help you need!

The Tailored Difference
We know parents have choices when it comes to choosing the right nanny agency to help their family. The Tailored Nanny wants families to know that we separate ourselves from other agencies in two distinct ways.
First, The Tailored Nanny charges a flat-rate fee, not a percentage rate. We feel a percentage rate pushes families into paying a higher Nanny rate, just so the agency can get a bigger fee-and that’s not fair! Keeping a flat-rate placement fee keeps things simple and fair for all parties. The Tailored Nanny provides market rate consultations to better assist families in choosing a competitive hourly wage.
Second, and probably the biggest difference between The Tailored Nanny and other agencies is the detailed matching process that happens between nannies and families. All families answer about 65 questions in order for The Tailored Nanny to match them with the right Nanny. Finding a nanny is a personal process and the name says it all! The Tailored Nanny truly tailors each placement to each families needs. We understand what works for one family might not work for another. We pride ourselves in having a 95% success rate with matching nannies and families! Call us today for a free phone consultation to find out why we are different.
At The Tailored Nanny, our goal is simple: to make finding a nanny easy and rewarding. Each placement is fully customized to fit your unique family, with hours of interviews and screenings to ensure the perfect match.
The fee for custom nanny placement is $5,000. This includes unlimited text messages, phone calls and emails, along with interviews and a full background check. Families pay a registration fee to get started.
We’ll present 3-5 candidates for you to interview and try on a trial basis. If none are the right fit, we’ll find another at no extra cost. After a 4-month grace period, additional placements will incur a fee. For more details, please submit a request below.
EXCELLENT Based on 52 reviews Posted on Selin WilliamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a really positive experience with the Tailored Nanny. I’m an experienced nanny, and the communication throughout the process was great, very fast, clear, and supportive. Laramie was always responsive and happy to answer all of my questions. She matched me with a wonderful family, and the whole process was quick and smooth about 10 days to two weeks from start to finish. I’m very happy with how everything worked out and would definitely recommend this agency.Posted on Jennifer LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After years of searching and trials and errors, we sought Laramie once and for all to help us find a long term full-time nanny/mother’s helper. The process from start to finish was comprehensive, honest, and swift. She was able to provide us candidates within the first few days! Each candidate was vetted thoroughly, Laramie ensured they knew exactly the type of family we were, making it a breeze when trialing because expectations were already discussed. The candidates were all very good, but one stood out and we are so grateful for Laramie’s matchmaking skills!! We absolutely adore our Nanny ❤️ Laramie is very personable, honest, and easy to talk to. She was accessible throughout the whole process and worked hard in finding our match. Don’t second guess it, let Laramie do the work in finding the best possible nanny for you! Take the stress off your shoulders, parenting is hard enough!Posted on Sherrie HandrinosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 10/10 love Laramie and working with her! She was thoughtful, detailed and always available for me whenever I needed help or advice on how we were going to navigate this process!Posted on Adil RajabaliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our first time using a nanny placement service, and working with Laramie was an incredibly positive experience. After weeks of trying to find a nanny on our own through sites like Care.com and getting nowhere, we decided to partner with this agency, which was the best decision we made. From the start, Laramie provided us with a comprehensive 65-question questionnaire that helped us clearly define what we were looking for in a candidate. This thoughtful process ensured that every candidate presented to us met at least 90% of our criteria, which was remarkable. We were also working under a very tight deadline, and thanks to Laramie’s attentiveness and the efficiency she brings in her candidate evaluation process, we found the perfect nanny within just two weeks of signing the engagement letter with The Tailored Nanny. Laramie supported us every step of the way, answering all our questions and making the process smooth and stress-free. If you’re considering a nanny placement service for the first time, we highly recommend Laramie and The Tailored Nanny. She truly listened, delivered, and made the entire experience seamless.Posted on Claire CochranTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laramie is basically the matchmaker for nannies! She took the time to really get us—our values, our parenting style, and even our personalities—and didn’t just send us a pile of resumes. She zeroed in on what mattered most to our family: someone who genuinely embraces our education- and kid-focused approach. What stood out? We’ve worked with other agencies before, and this was hands-down the best experience. Laramie didn’t waste our time. Every candidate she introduced was aligned with what we said we wanted (and even things we didn’t realize we needed). We walked away feeling like we weren’t just matched with a nanny—we were understood. That’s rare, and we’re so grateful for it.Posted on Juliette NTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laramie is AMAZING at what she does. We were looking for a nanny to fit a very specific role. Her intake is extremely thorough and she found multiple candidates who fit what we were looking for. Everything was scheduled quickly and we were able to choose the best fit for us. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone looking for a quality nanny for their children.Posted on Connie ChenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laramie is a true gem. My family worked with her on a short timeline and she introduced us to an amazing caregiver that was a perfect fit. What really drew me to her company was her deep experience in the field. She understands the Houston market really well unlike other large agencies that might place for several different markets. She has a thorough process to vet all candidates before even sending them our way, checking references before even providing me their resumes. She made the entire process incredibly efficient which is so important for busy professionals. Our placement took 6 days!! Most of all she is just an incredible person who I felt I could trust with helping us find a high quality candidate. I would work with her again in a heartbeat.Posted on vasavi reddyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. TTN helped us hiring our current nanny who we absolutely love. Our little one was 10 months old and she loves spending time with our nanny. The process TTN follows is a rigorous one with a long list of questions which help with getting an idea on the requirements clearly from the on set. Once the requirements are clear, we got atleast 4-5 resumes matching majority of our requirements followed by interviews and selection..it was great to actually meet them in person and see how the baby reacted to them. Our current Nanny takes care of our baby so well and she has become part of our family. Overall it turned out very well for our family and I would definitely recommend TTN for anyone new to hiring Nannie’s in Houston like us :)Posted on Tamra WilkersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were brand new to the nanny world and had no idea where to start. The Tailored Nanny made the entire process so approachable and stress-free. Laramie helped us understand everything about nannies and their expectations, and honestly understood our needs and desires even better than we did. Laramie presented us with several fantastic candidates, guided us through the hiring process, and was always there to answer questions—no matter how big or small. We especially appreciated the way she gently encouraged us and checked in to keep things moving in a timely manner. Thanks to her expertise and support, we felt confident every step of the way and couldn’t be happier with the outcome!Posted on Annie AggarwalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laramie is amazing! My family has used her a few times to find nannies for our kiddos. She always comes thru with excellent candidates. We highly recommend her. She is absolutely worth the price. She does all the legwork for you and finds candidates that fit your criteria.
Hello & Welcome
My name is Laramie George, and I am the proud owner of The Tailored Nanny.
Being a mother and career nanny myself for over a decade, I can relate to both nannies and families. Through years of experience, I have come to understand just what it takes to be a nanny- love, compassion, patience and so much more. Also, being a mother, I know just what families need.
I know how important it is when connecting a family with a nanny, a perfect fit is everything. My mission is to create a customized experience that will provide you with a nanny that is tailored to fit your unique family. Personally, I can think of nothing more rewarding than finding the perfect fit between nannies and families.
Parents….you’ve got this and I’ve got your back! Together we will create a custom childcare experience for your children and whole family.
Nannies….A good nanny is worth her weight in gold. Together we will find you a family to grow with and become a part of.
Sincerely, Laramie George
Owner & Founder
The Tailored Nanny
Here at The Tailored Nanny, we are always looking for new and loving nannies, home managers, mothers' helpers, and personal assistants. We know your worth, and we are dedicated to finding you the right family that feels the same way. Our nannies work directly for the family and are never forced to sign agency contracts- you deserve all your hard-earned money! We do, however, provide an offer of employment between nannies and families. This protects both parties and is smart to have.
TTN also prefers phone consultations over a typical application. Please submit a request, send a text or call us for more information on how to apply.
Call us at 832-890-0100 or 918-200-4420. Feel free to send a text or give us a call or submit an inquiry or request. We will be back with you shortly.
A: Typically, nanny placements take an average of two weeks. Some take less and some take more time. To get a better understanding on the amount of time your placement may take, please give us a call to discuss the details- We are happy to talk to you anytime!
A: Yes. All the nannies work directly with the family. The family is responsible for paying the nanny directly.
A: TTN will help families navigate this area. We do not handle the taxes for you. We give advice and guidance on what works best for your family.
A: TTN uses a multifaceted approach. We have many outlets to recruit nannies. We have nannies who call and email us every day looking for the right family. We also use a nanny referral system, which works great. We have a lot of the same outlets parents do, however, we have the dedicated time to sift through hundreds of people. Leave the legwork to us!
A: We use a local Houston company to perform all of our background checks. This particular company has been established since the mid-80s, so they have a great track record. (Parents receive a copy of all background checks). They check arrest records, sexual offender registry, criminal and driving records. Families can add a civil search for an additional fee. This includes checking for things such as lawsuits, judgements, liens, and bankruptcies. Keep in mind that most agencies only do a simple criminal background check-not a civil one. We believe having both is smart!
A: Pretty much anything! If you are not satisfied, we aren’t either. Whether it’s not a good fit, your nanny moves or gets sick-you’re covered! Keep in mind, TTN has a 95% success rate matching nannies and families.
