How to Verify a Nanny Before She Enters Your Home

A profile is not verification. Here is the structured process families in Gurgaon and Delhi NCR should complete before a nanny starts work.

Hiring a nanny is not the same as hiring household help. You are allowing someone into your child’s daily life. That is why verification should happen before introduction, not after the nanny has already started working in your home.

Start with identity, not availability

Ask for government identity documents and address details first. KinvoCare reviews these records to improve traceability and accountability. A nanny who is available this week is not automatically a nanny who is ready to enter your home.

Background checks reduce avoidable risk

Background screening and criminal record check support help families make a more informed decision. No process can remove every risk, but skipping this step leaves avoidable gaps. Police registration support, where applicable, adds another layer of local accountability.

Look beyond the profile

A profile does not show how someone behaves when a baby cries for a long time. Behavioural screening and psychometric testing help assess patience, emotional control, communication, and childcare suitability before interviews begin.

  • Government ID and address review
  • Background screening support
  • Behavioural and psychometric assessment
  • Childcare and safety training
  • Police registration and agreement support

KinvoCare selects fewer than 25% of nanny applicants after screening. The goal is not to fill a vacancy quickly. It is to introduce families to nannies who have been verified, trained, and prepared for placement.
