For years, Hanna worked as a professional nanny, caring for the children of exceptional families around the world. It was work she loved deeply — the kind that shapes you, teaches you what truly matters, and reminds you every day of the profound privilege it is to be trusted with a family's most precious responsibility.
Through those years, Hanna witnessed something remarkable: when the relationship between a family and their nanny is built on genuine respect, clear communication, and mutual trust, everyone thrives. The children flourish. The parents feel supported. And the nanny feels valued, protected, and empowered to do their best work.
That realization became the foundation of Lumière. This agency exists to create those kinds of placements — the ones where everyone wins. Where families find not just a qualified caregiver, but someone who genuinely enhances their household and enriches their children's lives. Where nannies find not just employment, but meaningful work in families who value them, treat them fairly, and invest in their professional growth.
Lumière is built on the belief that childcare is not transactional — it is relational. It requires trust, transparency, and a commitment to doing things the right way. That means full legal compliance, thorough vetting, honest communication, and ongoing support for both families and nannies throughout the placement and beyond.
We don't just match résumés to requirements. We take the time to truly understand each family's values, rhythm, and needs — and to find nannies whose skills, personality, and approach align perfectly. We believe that when you get the match right, magic happens.
If you are a family seeking someone you can truly trust with your children — or a nanny looking for a placement where you will be valued, protected, and given the opportunity to excel — you have found the right place.
