Nooga Nannies is a caregiver referral agency, which means we don't actually hire our caregivers, we just recommend them to families.  When we think you would be a great match for a family, we send them your information and set up a time for you to meet them.  From there, the family handles hiring and becomes your employer.  But don't worry; Nooga Nannies will be there to guide you during the whole process.  We will also continue to support you as you journey through your employment and grow as a professional caregiver.
