There is no extra fee or surcharge when you pay your Nanny's deposit through MummyNanny. MummyNanny is free for Mummies to use and pay their Confinement Nanny's deposit. Mummies pay the exact deposit amount without any extra charges and pay the remaining salary directly to the Nanny after she arrives at their home.
Direct hiring is not easier or cheaper, and it comes with much higher risks. With MummyNanny, you can filter based on your needs, compare Nanny profiles, read real reviews, and shortlist candidates—all in one place. When you hire directly, it’s hard to keep track of this information, and you’re completely on your own if something goes wrong. With MummyNanny, you enjoy all the tools, transparency, and protections without paying extra—we don’t charge Mummies for using the platform or making a deposit.
Because your peace of mind matters. When you pay through MummyNanny, your deposit is protected by a money-back guarantee. Nannies know you can leave a public evaluation on their profiles, which determines their world ranking and directly affects their chances of getting future jobs. This motivates them to give you the best possible service.
If a Nanny asks you to bypass the platform, it’s a red flag. Nannies who avoid the platform often don’t want their performance tracked or reviewed—and that usually means they can’t guarantee quality service. This behavior shows they are more interested in securing your money than earning your trust. If this happens, report the Nanny immediately. We take such cases seriously and will act quickly to protect you and other Mummies in the community.
Based on past Mummy experiences, it is very difficult for authorities or the law to step in without a formal contract. That's why paying your deposit through MummyNanny means more than just finding a Confinement Nanny — it means every job has an official record and there is proof of service agreement between you and the Nanny.
The Nanny receives the deposit only after you confirm her arrival. MummyNanny holds the payment securely and only releases it when the Nanny has fulfilled her commitment to show up, adding an extra layer of safety and accountability.
We understand that last-minute cancellations can be stressful. That's why MummyNanny has put safeguards in place to protect you:
(i) Nannies only receive the deposit after you confirm their arrival at your home
(ii) You can submit a public review that will appear on their profile and impact their career, and
(iii) They will have a no-show record on their profile for other Mummies to see.
With these in place, Nannies have little reason to cancel a job at the last minute unless there's a genuine emergency. If that happens, they will inform you early so we can immediately prioritize your job and assist you in getting an urgent hire.

MummyNanny is a platform that connects Mummies with authentic Confinement Nannies. Every Confinement Nanny registered on the platform is a freelancer, so they decide their job scope and set their salary by themselves. You can view each Nanny's salary on their profile.

Confinement Nannies require a deposit to reserve your slot. Making payments directly to a stranger's bank account is unsafe, as this has led to several unfortunate events. MummyNanny protects you by providing a safe and secure payment system for you to make a deposit for your Nanny with no extra charge. Your Nanny will receive the deposit once you confirm her arrival. Then you pay the remaining salary directly to her based on your agreement.
