A note from our founder
At Sommet Nannies, we believe every child deserves to be seen, understood, and cared for in a way that celebrates who they are with kindness and respect. And every parent deserves support that feels safe, steady, and truly aligned with their family’s values.
My own journey as a parent has shown me just how transformative the right support can be. Raising children is a profound, joyful, and sometimes challenging experience—and having the right caregiver by your side can make all the difference. I know firsthand the peace of mind that comes when you find someone who not only has the skills but also the heart to nurture your children as their own.
That’s why Sommet Nannies was created: to thoughtfully connect families with exceptional caregivers who bring calm, warmth, and professionalism into the home. Every placement is handled with care, considering not just logistics, but personalities, rhythms, and what truly matters to you as a parent.
You pour so much love and energy into your children. Let us walk alongside you and help you find a nanny who feels like a trusted extension of your family—someone who makes life a little easier, days a little lighter, and your home even more full of joy.
