Earn Nanny and Childcare Certifications

The US Nanny Institute operates as a professional trade school and abides by post-secondary licensing requirements. US Nanny Institute ensures all students pay the same tuition (no promotional discounts) and the school provides student support services including job placement training. The US Nanny Institute requires students to complete assignments as they watch the on-demand classes and are allowed multiple attempts but must pass quizzes and an exam. The classwork and proficiency requirements in addition to a comprehensive curriculum and college faculty are the foundation for the US Nanny Institute to issue certifications, not certificates of attendance.
