CFNS wants to ensure the hiring process is as smooth as possible.  Below is a summary of the Support Services that we will provide to you:

CFNS Support Services

Professionally Interviewed Employers – All ‘employers’ are professionally interviewed by CFNS to ensure you are placed in a quality and compatible home, with no surprises.

Customized Caregiver Placement – Based on your experience, training, education and personality, CFNS will present you the best family/contract that will truly be the right fit for you! Each family has unique needs, as each caregiver is unique in herself. Let us do the searching and recruiting for you!

The One-on-One Approach - You will have the employer's complete time and attention during the interviewing process. Therefore, you do not need to worry about the employer interviewing other caregivers at the same time.

Equal Representation – For the Caregiver and the Family. CFNS maintains a high level of support and services to both parties.

3-month In-home Training for Nanny and Employer – To ensure a smooth transition, CFNS will spend the first 3 months conducting follow-ups to see how you’re doing. This will allow us to directly address any questions or concerns you may have. We will also spend time with your employer, guiding them through the training process.

GUARANTEE – If you do not remain in the employer’s employment for the first 90 days, CFNS will make every attempt to find a suitable replacement at no extra cost. *Some restrictions do apply

Interview Training – As most interviews are conducted over the phone, we want you to ‘showcase’ your best qualities, personality and experiences quickly. CFNS will guide you through what you can expect to be asked, what the employers are looking for and how to present yourself in a professional manner over the phone.
Documentation – CFNS will process all required documentation in Canada and assist you with the Canadian Embassy paperwork.

Confidentiality – CFNS recognizes when applying for a caregiver position, it requires providing us with confidential information. This information allows CFNS to find the ‘caregiver’ the most compatible and qualified employment contract.

CFNS will not pass on, share or sell your information to any third parties for any reason other than those stated previously to fulfill the service to which you have hired CFNS for.

Access to Toll Free Number - Once you have signed up with CFNS, you will have access to a toll free number, so you can contact us at our expense.
