Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - Nanny Agency Managers
What is the difference between a Nanny Agency Manager and Local Area Manager (LAM) or State Area Manager (SAM)?
There is no difference, we use the term interchangeably at NannyPod. We can set you up in as little as 1 week, sometimes faster if requested.
How do I become a Manager or Local Area Manager or State Area Manager and start running my own Nanny Agency business?
All Managers and existing Nanny Agencies have to apply first. We have a basic screening and interview process. As long as you are enthusiastic it is likely we will approve you. We will then send you a basic contract and your login links. Please note that there is a small one time set up fee and then monthly recurring fee for our software, thank you.

Why should I use the NannyPod platform for my nanny agency?
NannyPod helps you set up everything you need and lists you as a Local Area Manager (LAM). We allow you to charge your own flat “Boutique Fee”. This is usually between $250 and $2000 per family, sometimes more depending on your state and city.

What items do I need to set up to be a Manager?
Driving License and a background check.
Why don’t I just set up my own nanny agency?
Most nanny agencies are expensive to start. In addition, we frequently see policies and procedures at nanny agencies that are not really that helpful to families. NannyPod solves all of this and more, allowing you to earn money instantly without the hassle of things going wrong.
What are the fees involved for a Manager?
NannyPod fees are very low for Nanny Agency Managers (which we also call Local Area Managers or LAMs or State Area Managers or SAMs). We offer the simplest lowest cost way to start your nanny agency. They can be viewed here: https://www.nannypod.com/softwarepricing
