Prefer a payment plan?
We offer a payment plan that allows you to purchase each program individually. This gives you the flexibility to take classes when it fits your budget. To enroll:
1. Select the Basic or Newborn program and pay the tuition and fees.
2. When you are ready, you can come back to this page and enroll in the Intermediate program. You must complete Basic, then Intermediate, then Advanced and Specialist before enrolling in the Professional program.
3. Check your email for a link to log into your student account. You should use the same login if you are a returning student.
4. Sign and complete the enrollment agreement. When the enrollment agreement and government identification is submitted, the Administrative staff will be notified to confirm the prerequisite levels are complete. You will be notified when the program is available to begin, usually within 2 business days. You will not be able to immediately start the program as the Administrators must confirm the pre-requisite levels have been completed before releasing the classes into your student account.

Program cancellation and refund policy
Should a student’s enrollment be terminated or canceled for any reason, all refunds will be made according to the following.
Cancellation requires the submission of Form 108 by electronic mail to info@usnannyinstitute.com or by termination. If the Nanny Institute does not accept the student or the student does not start any classes and cancels within (3) business days after making payment and requests a refund, 100% of the tuition less the $50 non-refundable enrollment fee will be refunded. Cancellation after payment through 10% of the program will result in a pro rata refund. The pro rata refund is computed based on whichever is greatest – the number of clock hours of courses completed to the total program clocks hours or the number of days since payment to the total number of days allocated to complete the program.
Canceling after completing more than 10% of the program (courses and/or time allocated) will result in no refund. Refunds will be made within 30 days of termination of the student’s enrollment or receipt of Cancellation Notice (Form 108) from the student.
