The Lumière difference
"I founded Lumière because the families I worked for kept asking the same question: where do we find another nanny like you? I still take private placements. Every nanny I place is one I would work alongside."
Hanna founded Lumière Placements in Monaco in 2024 after years inside private households as a career nanny. She continues to take selected private placements alongside leading the agency — a working-nanny perspective that shapes every shortlist Lumière puts forward. Lumière is the only Monaco-headquartered boutique placement agency founded and led by an active working career nanny.
