Jayme richards, Founder
Chicago Owner

I firmly believe that every child deserves the very best care, and that families deserve real peace of mind — the kind that lets you walk out the door each morning without a second thought. As long as I can remember, a child on my hip has been my accessory of choice, and that love for children is really where this all began.
I built The Nanny Collaborative on a foundation of integrity, trust, personalized service, and a keen perspective on all facets of childcare. I know that no two families are the same and no two nannies are either. My goal is always to go above and beyond to ensure that the families I serve have access to top-tier nannies who are not only experienced, but genuinely aligned with the family's values, culture, and needs.
As a childcare professional for over 30 years and a mom to a young adult myself, I know firsthand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and your children's lives and I don't take that lightly. I value the relationships I build with both families and nannies, and I make it a top priority to find solutions that truly work for everyone involved.
At the end of the day, this work is more than placements, it's about giving families confidence and children the care they deserve. I look forward to working with you!

Carefully built around the belief that families deserve caregivers who truly love what they do, and organically grown by listening to what families actually need as their children grow.

what started as a nanny placement agency has blossomed into a full village: Collab on Call for the moments life gets spontaneous, and The Newborn Collab for the specialized care the earliest days deserve.

A village for families.
A home for caregivers.
A community built on trust.
