Services Built Around Families

Finally — a trusted, local way to find childcare you can feel great about.

Through Network Membership, families receive six months of access to our Curated Caregiver Directory, along with waived booking fees throughout their membership period. Our directory connects families with a handpicked network of pre-screened, reliable caregivers — including babysitters, nannies, infant care specialists, tutors, family assistants, and more — ready to provide exceptional care when you need it most.

Each caregiver profile includes verified information regarding experience, certifications, availability, specialties, and caregiving approach, allowing families to find the right fit on their own timeline and based on their unique needs.

Families can browse locally curated caregiver profiles, filter by location, skills, and care preferences, and connect directly with caregivers who align with their family’s lifestyle and values.

Behind the scenes, every caregiver within our network receives ongoing support, professional development opportunities, and guidance in best practices. For families, this creates peace of mind through transparency, choice, and thoughtfully curated local talent. For caregivers, it provides visibility, flexibility, and professional representation within a trusted community.

At Cape & Islands Nanny Network, we believe in finding talent, localizing care, and nurturing meaningful relationships between families and caregivers across Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket. Our mission is to create a more personal, transparent, and community-centered approach to childcare while supporting trusted local connections throughout the Cape & Islands.

Occasional Caregiver Introduction | $75

Please Note:
Cape & Islands Nanny Network is not a placement or employment agency and does not employ caregivers. We operate as a referral-based network that connects families with pre-screened caregivers while offering guidance, resources, and support throughout the connection process. Each introduction is thoughtfully curated based on your family's unique childcare needs, schedule, and preferences. All hiring decisions, scheduling, compensation, and employment arrangements are made directly between families and caregivers.

Family Lifestyle Photography Sessions designed to capture the genuine moments, connections, and memories that make each family unique.

These relaxed, storytelling-focused sessions are centered around authentic interactions rather than heavily posed photographs. Whether at home, on the beach, or in a favorite outdoor location, each session is designed to document the laughter, connection, and everyday moments that families will cherish for years to come.

Photography services are provided by founder Kalyani Clarke, who has spent years capturing special moments for families, friends, and community members. After receiving encouragement from clients and loved ones, Family Lifestyle Photography was added as an extension of Cape & Islands Nanny Network's family-centered services. 

A combination of professional camera equipment and iPhone photography is used to create galleries that feel both polished and personal. Depending on the session, short video clips may also be captured and compiled into a keepsake family highlight reel.

Enjoy exclusive promotions available only to Cape & Islands Nanny Network members as well. Families interested in connecting directly with our trusted local photography partners can access special pricing and member-only offers, making your experience with us even more memorable!

Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply preserving a season of life, these sessions offer families the opportunity to create lasting memories through natural, heartfelt photography.
