Great providers deserve to be seen, supported and rewarded
Kith connects professional au pairs, nannies and private tutors with carefully selected families who value their skills. Access trusted placements, free training, weekly payments and ongoing support as you build a career that grows with you.
WHY KITH EXISTS
Professional care deserves a professional platform.
Too many talented care providers are expected to find families alone, negotiate their own pay and rebuild their professional records whenever a placement ends.
Kith was created to offer a better way. We connect trusted providers with carefully selected families while offering clear placement terms, reliable payments, professional development and ongoing support.
Our purpose is simple: to help the people who care for children build careers with greater dignity, stability and opportunity.
