10 Step Screening Process For Virginia Nannies

We understand that countless parents have a tremendous struggle to find competent and safe caregivers and we are here to help! We recognize that our role as a Virginia Nanny Placement Agency is of enormous importance and we take each step of the process very seriously. It’s not easy to become an ABC Nanny and really, it shouldn’t be! We require a lot from our Virginia Nannies so that we can feel secure that we are providing unparalleled levels of safety and security for families

ABC Nanny Source will interview several applicants before we find a Nanny that we are able to accept into our database. We invest a lot of time and effort into each of our Nannies and we consider each one carefully prior to accepting them. Each Nanny has had at least two interviews before becoming an official ABC caregiver.

However, ABC’s Virginia Nannies benefit by joining ABC Nanny Source because they are able to secure better, more suitable positions based on the training and screening we require.

Phone Interview
	This usually lasts 30 to 45 minutes, and includes inquiring about many of the requirements necessary before being accepted for an interview.
Face-to-Face Interview
	You may be surprised that many Nanny Agencies that have been serving the local community for several years do not even meet the Nanny before sending them out to a family. At ABC Nanny Source, every single Nanny is required to come into the agency for a face-to-face interview before continuing the process.
Criminal Background Investigation
	It’s equally as shocking to find that many agencies will only do the Nationwide Criminal background check after the Nanny has been hired. This, in effect, means a criminal could have already been welcomed into your home! At ABC Nanny Source, the report results are obtained and then provided to you in the electronic profile.
DMV Check (Motor Vehicle Report)
	Many positions require the Nanny be available to drive if necessary. We feel it is important to know their driving record for safety purposes, but also this can be a good indication regarding the responsibility level of the candidate being considered! Report results are provided prior to your interview with the candidate.
Drug Test
	Every candidate must pass a 5-panel drug test to even get to the next step of the interviewing process. It is a requirement for every applicant to pass this test.
Social Security Verification
	ABC Nanny Source takes every conceivable measure possible to be completely sure that the candidates we are allowing to represent our Virginia Nanny Agency are being completely forthcoming regarding their identification and citizenship. Therefore, a social security verification trace is done on every candidate prior to being accepted into our database.
Photographed
	A picture is worth a thousand words! Each profile has a photograph of our Candidate taken at our Agency at the time of their face-to-face interview, and is provided to you at the very top of the electronic profile.
Fingerprinted
	Candidates who apply to become a Virginia Nanny with ABC Nanny Source must submit to electronic fingerprinting. These are fully scanned into their profile. You truly cannot be too thorough when it comes to children! We have fingerprints for every Nanny that has ever come to our agency on file, and provide them to you.
References
	All references that the nanny provides to ABC Nanny Source are checked and verified. The results of these verified references are then provided for you to review in each nanny's profile.
Credentials Verified
	Copies of all Certifications are provided to you!
