Cape Town's Premium Childcare Service
Cornerstone places thoroughly vetted, professionally trained nannies with families, hotels, and luxury properties across Cape Town and the Winelands — with the warmth and discretion you deserve.
"We don't just place nannies. We take the time to find the right person for your home, your children, and your life."
Cornerstone was built on a simple belief — that families deserve more than a name from a list. We take time to understand your household, your values, and your needs, and match you with a nanny you can genuinely place your trust in.
Every nanny in our network has been interviewed in person, rigorously vetted, and completed our in-house training programme. We serve both private families and the hospitality sector — including hotels and luxury properties across Cape Town and the Winelands.
Finding the right nanny is one of the most important decisions you'll make. We take that seriously. Every placement is personal — matched to your family's routine, values, and the qualities that matter most to you.
When families travel, trust matters more than ever. We work with boutique hotels, five-star properties, and luxury Airbnb hosts to provide professional, reliable childcare that becomes part of the guest experience.
We don't just find nannies — we prepare them. Every Cornerstone nanny completes our in-house training programme and arrives with a complete, professionally prepared portfolio. No surprises. No gaps. Just a nanny you can trust from day one.
Your family receives a personal Cornerstone Nanny Pack — a full record of everything we've verified, so you have complete confidence in the person caring for your children.
"Placing your trust in someone to care for your children is one of the most personal decisions you'll ever make. We take that responsibility to heart — every single time."— Cornerstone Childcare, Cape Town
Most families are matched within two weeks. We stay with you through every step — from first conversation to settled-in nanny.
A relaxed conversation — by WhatsApp or phone — to understand your needs, your schedule, and what trust looks like for your household.
We identify the right candidates from our trained network — each one vetted, referenced, first-aid certified, and Cornerstone prepared.
We present two or three well-matched candidates and support you through the interview process so you feel confident in your choice.
We remain available through the settling-in period and back every placement with a 14-day replacement guarantee.
Every nanny is DBS checked, personally interviewed, reference verified, and first-aid certified before joining our network. We hold ourselves to a standard we'd apply in our own homes.
Our in-house training programme means every Cornerstone nanny understands what professional childcare truly looks like — before they step through your door.
We get to know your family before we recommend anyone. Personality, values, and household fit matter as much to us as qualifications and experience.
If something isn't right within the first two weeks, we'll find a replacement at no additional charge. We stand behind every placement we make.
Every enquiry and placement is managed with complete professionalism. Your family's privacy is always respected — without exception.
One consultant, from first conversation to a settled, happy placement — and available long after. We're here for the long term, just like the nannies we place.
