Why proofbyparents
Built on trust, not just resumes
We go beyond credentials — every nanny is vouched for by a parent who's actually worked with them, using the same structured questions every time.

Parent-verified badges

Only nannies vouched for by a verified parent family earn the badge — it can't be bought or faked.

Structured, comparable reviews

Every parent answers the same questions. No free-form rambling — just signal you can actually act on.

Ask a reviewer directly

Reviewers who opt in can be messaged through proofbyparents. Real answers — their email stays private.

Full transparency

The invite-to-response ratio is always visible. You can see who didn't reply and draw your own conclusions.

What a real review looks like
Not a paragraph of glowing praise

Reliability: Excellent Engagement: Excellent Communication: Great Safety: Excellent Would rehire: Definitely
Sarah was an absolute lifesaver for our family. Our kids adored her — she always came prepared with activities and genuinely cared about their development.
Area for improvement
Sometimes slow to respond to texts during nap time, but always checked in at pickup so it was minor.
The difference
Not another Care.com
Free-form reviews are easy to fake and impossible to compare. We built something different.

Other platforms

Free-form reviews skew 4.5–5 stars universally
No way to compare nannies on the same criteria
Reviewers are anonymous and unverifiable
No visibility into cherry-picked references
