"I trust NannyNow with my twins. The verification process gave us total peace of mind."
"Booked a sitter for date night in 10 minutes. She was wonderful — we've already re-booked twice."
"The reviews are real and messaging stays in-app. Finally a platform that takes safety seriously."
Yes. Every nanny submits a valid South African ID and undergoes a criminal background check before they can accept any booking.
You pay the nanny's hourly rate plus a small platform fee — clearly shown before you confirm. No subscription.
Open a dispute inside the app. The NannyNow team mediates, and payment is held until it's resolved.
We're live in 12 SA cities and expanding. Sign up to see nannies near you.
Absolutely. We're POPIA-compliant — messaging stays in-app and we never share your details with anyone you haven't booked. You can also share photos directly in the chat, so your child's pictures never sit on someone else's phone after the assignment.
Childcare advice, app updates and stories from real NannyNow families. No spam — ever.
