Dedicated Nanny Care

A reliable extension of your family’s routine.

The Elevated Nanny believes in building a foundation of trust before committing to a long-term partnership. Every family starts with a tiered introduction so we can be sure we’re the perfect fit for your child.

Personalized to your family

Because no two families are the same, exact rates, deposits, and any add-ons are discussed together during your consultation — so your plan fits your schedule, your home, and your child’s needs.

Founding-family introductory rates, specialized care (Sign Language / ASD focus), customized monthly bundles, and tailored lump-sum plans are all available.

The “Vibe Check” trial

A dedicated 30-to-120 minute introduction to make sure we’re the right match — before any regular schedule begins.

1 · Initial interview (virtual)

A 15-minute meeting over Zoom or Google Meet to walk through the portfolio booklet and your family’s needs and wants. Ask anything — this is your time. The initial virtual meeting is always complimentary.

2 · The trial session

One 2-hour trial session (supervised or unsupervised, based on your comfort). This first session is our gift to you — complimentary — so your child can explore the Engagement Bags and we can confirm our ECE approach aligns with your family.

The child observation (60 min)

We bring a mini Engagement Bag and observe how your child interacts with new tools — sensory-seeking, logic puzzles, responses to a new face. For neurodivergent learners we look for joint-attention cues and social reciprocity to best support their communication style.

Aligning on routines (20 min)

We discuss nap rhythms, settling methods, food preferences, and — most importantly — your “parenting north star”: what matters most to you right now. We wrap up by confirming the vibe is a match, then move straight to onboarding and scheduling.

Service & policies

Booking & payment

  • A booking deposit secures your dates on the calendar (amount discussed at your consultation).
  • A 3-hour minimum applies to all regular bookings to maintain the “Elevated” standard of care and routine.
  • Payment is due at the end of every shift.
  • Accepted methods: e-transfer (preferred) to theelevatednanny@gmail.com, or cash.

Cancellation policy

  • 48+ hours’ notice: no charge — full credit applied to your next booking.
  • 24–48 hours’ notice: a 50% cancellation fee of the booked shift applies.
  • Less than 24 hours’ notice: the full shift amount is due.
  • This time is reserved exclusively for your family and can’t be filled on short notice.

Service zone & travel

  • Core zone (no travel fee): Edmonton & St. Albert.
  • Extended zone (flat travel surcharge, discussed at your consultation): Leduc, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Beaumont, and Morinville.
  • Travel ensures the team — and our specialized Engagement Bags — arrive safely, on time, and ready to focus 100% on your child.

Overnight & 24-hour care

  • A Professional Hybrid Model keeps your home supervised around the clock.
  • Active (waking) hours are billed at your standard hourly rate.
  • A flat sleep fee covers the overnight rest window, when the nanny is on-call and responsible for the home (amount discussed at your consultation).
  • The “wake-up” clause: if a child needs active care for more than 30 minutes during the sleep window, the hourly rate resumes for that support.
  • For stays over 12 hours, a private, clean sleeping space and meals are provided.

Health & illness

  • The 24-hour rule: for the safety of all families, care can’t be provided if a child has had a fever (38°C+), vomiting, or diarrhea within the last 24 hours.
  • Medication: pre-measured medications are administered with written parental consent and clear instructions.
  • Providers maintain current Child Care First Aid & CPR certification.

Home & housekeeping boundaries

  • The “reset” rule: the home is always returned to the state it was found in — including washing dishes used for the children’s meals and tidying toys used during the shift.
  • Providers are ECE specialists, so deep cleaning, heavy or adult laundry, and general housekeeping aren’t included (overnight tasks can be discussed).
  • Timely release: please return within 15 minutes of the scheduled end time, or communicate ahead, to respect providers’ personal time.

Safety & home environment

  • Parents must be reachable by phone during the shift; a secondary local contact is required for “no-service” zones.
  • Pets with a history of reactivity are secured in a separate area during active play and transitions.
  • Nanny cams are welcome but must be disclosed in the initial agreement; recording in private areas (bathrooms or the nanny’s sleeping quarters) is strictly prohibited.
  • A zero-tolerance policy protects our staff from hostility or abuse.

Photos & social media — your choice

  • You choose your preferences for private daily-update photos, ECE portfolio use, and any public/marketing use — including anonymous (face-hidden) options.
  • No tagging: a child’s personal account, full name, or location is never disclosed in public posts.
  • You can change or revoke consent at any time in writing.

The Elevated Circle — referrals

Refer a family you love. When they complete their first Vibe Check you’ll receive a referral credit, and recurring referrals earn a complimentary “Home Reset” hour or a credit toward your next full evening session. Your referred family enjoys a discount on their first Vibe Check, too. (Details shared during your consultation.)
