"We
have placed ads in newspapers on two occasions and tried an AuPair
program twice. This has been our best experience by far." James Wilt
As the
Owner and Director of Morningside Nannies, I feel that it is important
for you to know me on a personal level and a business level.
As
the mother of four daughters I personally experienced the lack of
professionalism and screening that the existing domestic agencies offered
in Houston. As a result I founded Nannies and Such in
1983, the first agency in Houston to specialize in the referral of nannies.
Four years later I opened a second agency in San Francisco. Both offices
were eventually sold. After acouple of years passed, I once again recognized
the need for a nanny agency that was honest, objective and concerned
about the well being of children. I founded Morningside
Nannies in 1992.
On
a professional note, I worked for 6 years in the personnel industry
as an executive recruiter. My training in recruiting, interviewing and
screening applicants for
employment, coupled with my experience of employing
nannies for my own family, has enabled me to set our agency standards
very high. I can confirm that, "I
will only refer nannies that I would consider hiring to care for my
own children."
Morningside
Nannies is exclusive in the fact that it is the only agency
in Houston that is a `member of the Alliance of Professional Nanny
Agencies and the National Association of Nannies. I have
the honor of serving on the Board of Directors of the International
Nanny Association (INA), and was elected President in 2001.
I
look forward to speaking or meeting with anyone who is interested in our services.
We have an exceptional staff of well educated, professionally trained and
genuinely caring placement consultants. I am very confident that we will exceed
your expectations with our policies, procedures and excellent customer service.
