Kinds of nanny work

  • Full-time, with the same family every weekday.
  • Part-time or after-school, around school runs and homework.
  • Newborn and night nanny work.
  • Live-in nanny work, with your own room and agreed time off.
  • Care for a child with special needs.

Tell families what matters

  • The ages you love working with, and your experience with each.
  • The days and hours you are available.
  • Languages you speak, and whether you drive.
  • First aid and CPR training, and references families can call.

Protect yourself

Agree hours, pay, overtime, sick days and paid holidays in writing before you start. In many states a nanny is a household employee with specific rights — look up yours.

How Kalvri works for caregivers

Caregivers never pay Kalvri anything. Until Kalvri opens on the App Store you apply once, and a person reads every application. In the app you tell Kalvri your hours, your rate, your skills and what you will not do, and families whose needs you meet see you, ranked by fit.

  • No fee to apply, no commission, and every conversation is free on your side. The family pays you directly, and every dollar is yours.
  • Families who need work you have said you won't do, or more than the hours or distance you set, are not put in front of you.
  • What you say you will not do is respected. Kalvri never pushes you toward work you have ruled out.
  • You talk with a family before anything is agreed, and you can review the families you work for.

Apply once, free

One application covers every kind of work you do. About fifteen minutes, a person reads it, and you hear back either way.
