Childcare
Stress. Parents often use this word to describe what they’re feeling. After all, although parenting is exciting and rewarding, it’s also hard work, involving a tremendous commitment of time and energy. If you’re a parent, you know that it can be a real struggle to do everything—to cope with the demands of parenthood, to have a satisfying career, to maintain a social life, to devote some time to yourself. Well, when it comes to finding reliable, quality childcare—often another stressful part of parenting—put your trust in Preferred Personnel of Canada Inc., a company that provides superior nanny services to parents who deserve a break.

When parents start looking into childcare options for their children, they tend to think of traditional daycares first. For many families, however, a traditional daycare is not the best option-for many reasons.
It's not easy to find a quality daycare that is either close to your home, close to your office, or is on your commuting route. Even if you do find a daycare that you think will work for you, it may have a waiting list of several months-or possibly even a year or two. And with a traditional daycare, after a long day of work, you must rush to pick up your children, and then come home to do the cooking, the cleaning, and the shopping-those necessary activities that take so much of your time, wear you out, and mean less quality time with your family.
Factor in, too, that with a traditional daycare, you have to deal with making alternate childcare or babysitting arrangements whenever you have to work late, attend weekend or evening meetings or conferences, or travel out of town for business. Instead of feeling less stress, all of this is bound to make you feel even more stress.
Let Preferred Personnel help you find a nanny for your children, so that you can head off to work knowing that they are receiving quality, loving, and completely personalized care in the comfort of your own home. Your nanny will maintain an organized and clean home for you, and will assist in preparing supper, so you won't come home from work to face endless household chores. If you have to work late or go away overnight for business, you can make arrangements directly with your nanny to modify her working schedule to fit your schedule, so that your children are always in the care of someone they are familiar with, and love and trust.
Whether you choose a live-in nanny or a live-out nanny, you’ll find the nanny services of Preferred Personnel to be the most convenient and stress-free childcare option available. Read a detailed comparison of daycare versus nanny services.
Eldercare
Do you have elderly parents who require special care? Are you a member of the “sandwich generation,” torn between taking care of your children and taking care of your aging parents? How are you managing to find the time to take care of yourself—or are you? Trying to do everything for everyone stretches you beyond your limits, physically, emotionally, and in terms of your time. But, you still need to feel confident that your elderly loved ones are receiving the care they need. Let Preferred Personnel provide you with a solution. Read More »
As people age, it's normal for them to require some assistance with the daily tasks of living. Some elderly individuals may require comprehensive 24-hour care, and even medical assistance from trained nurses. Preferred Personnel can help you find a professional caregiver who will provide your elderly loved ones with the personalized care-as well as the companionship-they need.
There are typically long waiting lists for nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Also, consider the quality of care that is provided in these institutional settings. Staff are often overworked and underpaid, and are required to care for many individuals at the same time. Preferred Personnel’s caregivers provide professional one-on-one in-home care that allows elderly individuals to remain in the comfort of their own homes. Whether you’re at work, or spending time with your children, or away on vacation, you can feel confident that your elderly loved ones are being well cared for. Read a detailed comparison of institutional care versus in-home eldercare.

Supportive
Through consultation with employers, and engaging in a screening process with nannies, Preferred Personnel determines which nannies or caregivers would be most suitable for-and are most interested in working for-a particular employer. The employer is provided with the profiles of those nannies, and he/she then decides which nannies or caregivers to interview, and decided which nanny or caregiver to employ. This is a highly successful process.
Preferred Personnel also takes care of the complicated and time-consuming paperwork that the government requires from employers of live-in caregivers. The staff at Preferred Personnel have expertise in the requirements of various government departments-Human Resources and Skills Development Canada, Canada Revenue Agency, and Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
Preferred Personnel assists with all aspects of employing a nanny, from providing clients with resource material and interview questions, to providing payroll account information, to assisting with re-contracting of nannies. Preferred Personnel also offers networking support to nannies themselves, and follows up with clients and nannies after placement, to ensure that the placement is working out for everyone.
Reasonable, Comparable Client Fees
Preferred Personnel charges fees that are comparable to, and often lower than other agencies. Read More »
Just as it's unnecessary to pay excessively high fees for engaging a nanny or caregiver, it's also a warning sign when a nanny/caregiver agency charges extremely low fees, because that likely indicates the agency offers minimal service and support, in order to keep costs down. Preferred Personnel prides itself on maintaining the right service-cost balance, thereby offering outstanding service and support, while at the same time keeping client costs reasonable.
Placement Guarantee
Preferred Personnel provides an unconditional one-year placement guarantee. If your nanny or caregiver leaves before fulfilling his or her one-year contract with you, Preferred Personnel will be responsible for supplying you with a replacement for the remainder of the one-year period.
No Fees Charged To Local Nannies & Caregivers
Preferred Personnel does not charge fees to local nannies and caregivers, and does not take a percentage of their salaries. This ensures that the best nannies and caregivers come to Preferred Personnel first, and this means that the nanny looking after your children, and the caregiver looking after your elderly loved one, is one of the best.
