Nanny placement · Northern and Central Indiana

Finding the right person for your family should not feel like a second job.


Briar & Root is a nanny placement agency based in Warsaw, Indiana, serving families in Fort Wayne, South Bend, Indianapolis, and the communities between. We do the searching, the interviewing, and the vetting, and we bring you three candidates worth your time.

Grounded in trust. Cultivating care.

Three

Vetted candidates, presented together.

Four to eight weeks

From the first conversation to a first day.

Ninety days

Free replacement search, if the nanny resigns or is dismissed for cause. Full terms.

What makes this different

We meet dozens so you meet three.


A job board hands you a stack of profiles and wishes you luck. You screen them yourself, at night, after the children are down, with no way to tell a good reference from a polite one.

We work the other direction. Before anyone reaches your kitchen table, we have already spoken with their references, confirmed their employment history, checked their driving record and car insurance, and verified their education.

Most of our work is deciding who doesn't make the list.

Who this is for

Briar & Root places full-time, live-out nannies, thirty hours a week and up, with families in Fort Wayne, South Bend, Indianapolis, and the communities between. We are based in Warsaw.

One service, done properly, rather than five done thinly.

Who it isn't for

If you need occasional babysitting, a daycare center, a live-in position, or care under thirty hours a week, we are not the right fit, and we will tell you that on the first call rather than after you have paid us.

We place full-time nannies only, thirty hours a week and up. If you're looking for part-time care, we're glad to point you toward better options.

Who employs the nanny

You do. When you hire, you become the household employer, which means you set the pay and the schedule and handle payroll.

Why that matters

What it costs

$3,850 total. $350 to begin, the balance when you hire.


No hourly billing, no retainer that grows, no surprise at the end. The full number is on the pricing page along with what each stage buys.

A good match doesn't just start well. It takes root.


The first call is twenty minutes and costs nothing. Bring your questions.
