Connecting families to the best nannies and sitters.

Our passion is helping families find their dream nannies and sitters, and helping remarkable childcare providers find rewarding jobs throughout the Portland Metro area and Eugene, OR.

We’re a unique agency run by working and former nannies.

Becoming a brilliant nanny to us means you have extensive childcare experience and that you love bonding with children. We hire very selectively through our rigorous vetting process.

Become a Nanny

As a nanny, you bring joy to a child and peace of mind to hard-working families.

Hire a Nanny

We get to know your family so that we know what kind of nanny would work best for you.

Book a Sitter

Booking a sitter is a flexible way to fill care needs as they arise or with change or interrupted care.

Why choose A Brilliant Nanny?

Whether contracted care or on a temporary basis, we carefully match our families with our nannies. You will meet nannies who can meet and exceed the needs of you and your family. That is the secret of our success. Our nanny placements include:


  • Childcare recruitment
  • Candidate background checks
  • Vigorous interview process
  • Candidate reference checks
