Common questions
I am looking for nanny work, where do I sign up?▼
Sign up free here. We verify you (ID + references + a short interview), then list you when families in Kampala search for a nanny. We never charge nannies a placement fee — only families pay.
How much do nannies earn in Uganda?▼
Day nanny in Kampala is UGX 200,000 to 400,000 a month. Live-in is UGX 250,000 to 500,000 (with food and accommodation provided on top). Newborn specialists and English-speaking nannies in Kololo/Muyenga/Naguru households charge UGX 500,000 to 800,000.
Will the family pay the placement fee?▼
Yes. We never deduct anything from your salary. Families pay a small platform fee separate from your wage. Your monthly pay is whatever the family agreed with you.
I do not have written references, what do I do?▼
Call us before signing up. If you have only verbal references (a previous family who can confirm you worked for them on a phone call), we may still verify you. If you have no references at all, we generally cannot list you for live-in roles, but day-care and shorter assignments may still work.
Are the families I work for safe?▼
We verify families too — they must use a real ID, real address, and pay through the platform. If a family treats you unfairly, you can report them and we suspend their account. The platform exists to protect both sides.
