Pricing & How We Work
We take on a limited number of searches at a time, and every family we work with is a priority. Here's exactly what that costs and how it works.
Our Fees, Out In The Open.

We've been placing exceptional nannies nationwide since 2013. Here's exactly what it costs and how it works.
Brooklyn Manny & Nanny works on a retained model. That means we take on a limited number of searches at a time, and every family we work with is a priority, not one of thirty open jobs. It's why our families get placed in weeks, not months.

Two Ways To Work With Us
Standard Search
12% of your nanny's first-year gross compensation
A one-time agency fee, calculated based on what you'll pay your nanny in year one. For full-time, live-out positions with standard hours in our core Brooklyn and Manhattan neighborhoods. These are searches where our candidate bench runs deep, so we pass that confidence on to you.
50% to begin your search. 50% before trials begin. Your replacement guarantee starts the moment your trial does.
Complex Search
15% of your nanny's first-year gross compensation
For live-in roles, newborn care, special needs experience, part-time or non-standard schedules, multilingual requirements, relocations, and searches outside our core area. These searches take more time, deeper sourcing, and a more specialized bench. The fee is due at signing, because the real work starts the moment you do.
50% to begin your search. 50% when we present your candidate shortlist. From that point forward, our replacement guarantee has you covered.
A minimum placement fee of $3,000 applies to all searches.
Why Retained?
Because it works better for you. Contingency agencies juggle dozens of searches and get paid on the few that close, so your search competes for attention every day. When you retain BMAN, your search has our attention from day one. You're not paying to get in line. You're paying to skip it.
We know inviting someone into your home and your children's lives is one of the biggest decisions you'll make. At the end of the day, our priority is the match, the person your kids run to the door for.
Ready to Start?
We'd love to hear about your family. Book a consultation and we'll walk you through exactly how your search will go. No surprises, no hidden fees, no pressure.
