About Beacon Hill Nannies

The dedicated staff at Beacon Hill Nannies provides unparalled customer service.
“When stockbrokers Julie Pellatt, Paula Chiungos, and Katherine Robinson began planning to leave the Boston office of Kidder Peabody & Co. and start their own nanny business, colleagues scoffed. 'Nannies, who needs Nannies?' That was in the fall of 1987. That October, the stock market crashed and many of their fellow brokers were jobless.
“But Beacon Hill Nannies, Inc. has flourished on more than luck. They have built a thriving business by catering to the same well-heeled client base they served as stockbrokers. Beacon Hill nannies are all upscale – young, college-educated women. They like to think of their their nannies as 'role models' to children of the professional class. Most of them stay two or three years before going on to careers in teaching or other professions.
“Clients are encouraged to be choosy. Each customer screens videotaped interviews of up to a dozen aspiring nannies before meeting candidates. And if a nanny doesn't work out, within the first year the company will replace her for no additional fee.”
