How It Works

At Neuronanny, we specialize in company-employed (W-2) nanny placements, offering families a fully supported, compliant, and thoughtfully managed care experience.

Our model is designed for families who value structure, professionalism, and long-term alignment. From sourcing and vetting to employment and ongoing support, Neuronanny serves as a dedicated partner throughout the care journey.

Tier 1 — Starting at $26hr

Tier 2 — Starting at $29hr

Tier 3 — Starting at $35hr

Tier 4 — Starting at $46hr

To ensure the best possible matches, families move through a structured, step-by-step process designed to prioritize alignment, clarity, and care quality.

Step 1: $50 Alignment Consultation

A private conversation to understand your family’s needs, timeline, household dynamics, and care goals. During this consultation, we’ll walk through Neuronanny’s care model and determine the most appropriate next steps.

 Consultation's are required to begin the process.

Step 2: $350 Intake & Onboarding

For families who choose to move forward, this step includes detailed intake forms, family profile creation, and finalization of care structure and placement direction.

This stage prepares your family for placement and ensures we can begin the process thoughtfully and efficiently.

Step 3: 3,100 Active Placement Launch

Once intake is complete, Neuronanny begins active sourcing, screening, and presentation of qualified candidates aligned with your family’s needs.

Neuronanny’s placement process is supported by a $3,500 Service Retainer, which covers active sourcing, screening, candidate coordination, and placement support.

Fees paid during the consultation and intake phases are applied toward this retainer:

• $50 Alignment Consultation

• $350 Intake & Onboarding

• $3,100 Active Placement Launch

Together, these steps complete the $3,500 Service Retainer.

Final placement fees vary based on the selected care tier and level of support and are reviewed with families prior to placement.

At Neuronanny, caregivers are employed directly through the agency as W-2 employees. This structure allows families to enjoy a fully supported care experience without managing the complexities of household employment on their own.

Unlike a traditional placement model where families manage payroll, employment taxes, and caregiver administration independently, Neuronanny provides a structured care model that includes caregiver employment, benefits administration, and ongoing placement support throughout the year.

This approach helps create stable, professional placements designed for long-term success for both families and caregivers.

The annual agency fee allows Neuronanny to manage the employment framework and provide continued support throughout the placement.

This includes:

• W-2 caregiver employment through the agency

• Payroll administration and tax compliance

• Caregiver benefits and professional development stipends

• Access to the Neuronanny care team, including family support and nanny onboarding specialists

• Ongoing caregiver coaching and placement guidance

• Employment documentation guidance and placement agreements to support clarity and compliance for both families and caregivers

• Research and guidance to help families remain competitive within the specialized caregiver market

• Continued placement oversight and alignment support

• Replacement sourcing within the Neuronanny network during the contract period if needed

This structure helps reduce caregiver turnover while ensuring families receive consistent, supported care.

Caregiver compensation is separate from the agency fee and is determined by the nanny’s experience, qualifications, and selected care tier.

Neuronanny caregivers are experienced professionals with specialized training supporting children with autism, ADHD, and other neurodiverse needs.

Neuronanny placements involve three components:

Service Retainer — $3,500

Activates the intake process, family profile development, and candidate sourcing.

Caregiver Compensation

Paid directly for the nanny’s professional salary based on experience, qualifications, and care tier.

Annual Agency Fee

Supports caregiver employment, benefits, payroll administration, and ongoing placement support through Neuronanny.

For full-time placements, most families invest between $22,000 – $48,000+ annually in agency support, depending on the selected care tier and level of care.

Neuronanny was created to support families who need more than a traditional nanny placement. Our caregivers are carefully selected for their experience supporting children with neurodiverse needs and for their ability to provide structured, individualized care.

Families who work with Neuronanny benefit from:

• Access to highly vetted caregivers with specialized experience

• A structured placement process designed for long-term alignment

• W-2 caregiver employment managed through the agency

• Caregiver benefits and professional development support

• Guidance from the Neuronanny care team when questions arise

• Replacement sourcing within the Neuronanny network if needed during the contract period

Our goal is to create placements that are stable, professional, and well supported for both families and caregivers.

Families’ needs naturally evolve over time. Changes such as relocation, schedule adjustments, or shifts in household responsibilities may require a different care structure as children grow and family routines change.

Because Neuronanny operates with an active caregiver network and a structured contract model, families who are part of the Neuronanny network benefit from continued placement support throughout the contract period.

This allows Neuronanny to assist families with transitions that may arise, including:

• Adjusting care schedules as family routines change

• Transitioning to another qualified caregiver within the Neuronanny network if needed

• Expanding a caregiver’s role to support additional responsibilities as children grow

• Supporting families who relocate within Neuronanny service regions

Being part of the Neuronanny network allows families to access continued guidance and placement support, helping ensure their care structure can adapt as household needs evolve over time.

Every family’s needs are unique. During your consultation, we will review your household structure, discuss the appropriate care tier, and outline the next steps for beginning your Neuronanny placement process.

We believe the process of finding the perfect Neuronanny should be just as thoughtful and tailored as the care we provide. To help you navigate this journey with confidence, we’ve created a short video that explains the key steps in finding the ideal nanny for your family.
