The Nannie Agency

Located in the heart of Claremont in Cape Town, The Nannie Agency is a specialist HR and recruitment agency focused exclusively on childcare. Serving families across Cape Town and its surrounding areas, the agency connects parents with nannies, au pairs, night nannies, and housekeepers who are experienced, reliable, and carefully screened. Whether you are a local parent returning to work, a family new to the city, or visiting from abroad and needing short-term support, The Nannie Agency offers a personalised, one-to-one service to help you find trusted care for your children.

Founded and run by Natasha Fieliciano, The Nannie Agency has been placing childcare professionals in homes around the City Bowl, Claremont, and greater Cape Town since 2012. Over the years, Natasha has refined a matching process that looks beyond CVs and references to understand the real needs of each family and the strengths and personality of each caregiver. The aim is simple: to help families build long-lasting, mutually beneficial relationships in which a nanny becomes a natural extension of the home.

Parents using The Nannie Agency in Claremont often include first-time moms and dads, busy professionals, and international families seeking a trustworthy local partner. Many arrive feeling anxious about inviting someone new into their home; they leave with a sense of relief after being introduced to carefully vetted candidates who are aligned with their parenting style, schedule, and expectations.

Services & Specialties

As a dedicated child care recruitment agency in Claremont, Cape Town, The Nannie Agency offers a focused range of services designed around the everyday realities of family life. The core service is the recruitment and placement of nannies, from full-time live-out caregivers to those providing part-time or occasional care. Parents benefit from a curated shortlist rather than an overwhelming list of profiles, with each candidate personally interviewed and screened before being introduced.

In addition to nannies, the agency recruits and places au pairs, night nannies, and housekeepers, supporting families who need more specialised or flexible assistance. Night nannies are especially helpful for newborns and young babies, offering overnight support so parents can rest, while au pairs and housekeepers help balance childcare and household tasks. Many clients also rely on the agency for temporary and holiday placements, including short-term childcare for families visiting Cape Town or needing cover while a regular nanny is on leave.

Beyond placements, The Nannie Agency offers a 2-hour in-home antenatal course for expecting parents in Cape Town. Delivered in the comfort of your own home by a registered birth companion, this practical session helps new moms and dads prepare for their baby's arrival with clear, realistic guidance. For parents who prefer a calm, private setting over a group class, this tailored antenatal support is an especially valuable resource.
