NANC is a non-profit, educational organization dedicated to promoting excellence in nanny care.  We are an umbrella organization that welcomes all those that share our mission.

There are hundreds of thousands of in-home childcare providers in this country today; all working without any generally accepted standards.  These providers often spend 10 to 12 hours a day, 5 days a week with the children they care for.  They are substantial contributors to the educational, emotional, social and physical development of those children.  We, as individuals and as an industry, cannot be truly committed to children without being committed to raising the level of education, recognition and support their caregivers receive. 

 

Goals of NANC 

• To raise the overall quality of nanny care. 
• To raise the public’s awareness of the nanny as a childcare professional. 
• To provide real world guidelines regarding hiring practices, working conditions, and compensation for nannies. 
• To maintain an inclusive, responsive professional organization that represents the needs of all segments of nanny profession. 
• To develop and maintain a comprehensive 3 tier nanny credential system built on research-based, generally accepted standards of care and essential core knowledge areas.  Also, to support the individual nanny in her pursuit of credentialing. 
• To promote the credentialed nanny as the standard for in-home childcare providers.
