You’ve already gone through the process of hiring a nanny and it’s going great. Your family loves your caregiver’s services. You have a lot more time to get things done so you can focus on your kids when you’re with them. Then one day, your caregiver calls to tell you they are too sick to come. What should you do?
If you hired a caregiver on your own, you would be stuck. You might start placing frantic calls to friends and relatives. Thankfully, Twinkle Toes Nanny Agency has a policy for when your nanny calls in sick.

Backup nanny services
Whether your nanny calls you directly or calls the agency, Twinkle Toes will reach out to contact you. All communication is done over the phone as the agency works to get you a backup nanny.
Twinkle Toes will contact you directly to let you know who is available for backup care that day. It is our policy to always try to find you a caregiver for emergencies such as these. There may be other nannies not working that shift as well, so you may have options.
Once you know who can offer childcae services, you can decide whether or not you will use the backup service. This is left completely up to you. Some families feel comfortable leaving their kids with a new caregiver just for a day, while others do not. While all of our nannies are held to the same high professional standard, we understand if you do not want someone you haven’t met to watch your kids.
Is it possible that I will know the backup?
Most of our nannies are scheduled on revolving shifts. If you always need nanny services at the same time, you probably have only met one of our nannies. For families that use Twinkle Toes at more sporadic times, you may know several nannies because of the variety of days and times you need them.
Because of this, you may know the nanny available for backup when your regular calls in sick. We will always inform you who is available so you can see if you recognize the name or not. Even for a caregiver that you don’t know, you can relax with the knowledge that all of our nannies are thoroughly background checked, interviewed, and have references and experience in childcare.
