In the News

Elite Care Canada was voted once again the Top Nanny Service in 2009. We are very proud to have offered once more an exceptional service to our clients and want to thank everyone for their support which helped Elite Care Canada develop the highest reputation in the industry.

We understand that every family is unique and different and so are our nannies. That is why Elite Care Canada is the only nanny agency recruiting caregivers from more than 80 countries all over the world to meet special needs and requirements of Canadian families. We offer caregivers and nannies with an extensive background of childcare or eldercare experience, outstanding skills and qualifications from different countries. Elite Care Canada customizes caregivers by three diverse programs in order to find the perfect match for every family, always keeping the children’s and seniors’ well being at heart.

Remarkable changes happened since last year when Elite Care Canada was already voted Top Nanny Service. Those changes not only affected Elite Care Canada, but the Live-in Caregiver Program itself. Newspaper articles and reporters were investigating nanny agencies that abuse nannies and asking for horrendous fees to come to Canada. Elite Care Canada kept its strong reputation throughout the whole time and even reacted with positive changes such as a growing team of staff members, all putting their heart into their work, and make the process of hiring a Live-in Caregiver as easy as possible. Staff members of Elite Care Canada inform Canadian employers constantly about changes to make the process as transparent as possible.

Another way of showing how confident Elite Care Canada feels about its service in those difficult times was the introduction of an extended replacement guarantee for every family for up to two years. Should issues occur with the family and the nanny, the agency is always there to help right away and finding a new nanny if needed. Also, some caregivers like to experience Canada for one year only and instead of going through the full process of finding a suitable caregiver and agency again, families working with Elite Care Canada can go the easy way and just call their placement consultant.

Elite Care Canada also joined the biggest reward program in Canada: the Air Miles Reward Program.The AIR MILES Reward Program is an iconic brand in Canada. In fact, 97% of Canadians know it well. The brand enjoys the highest activity rates of any mass loyalty program, with approximately two-thirds of all Canadians actively collecting reward miles. We are proud to say that families collecting Air Miles can make the hiring process of a caregiver count double, not only will the family hire the best caregiver in the market, but they will also be able to collect Air Miles in addition.

Elite Care Canada is dedicated to its clients offering an unique service to make sure all needs and requirements are met. Highly standardized interview processes help the agency find professionals all over the world who want to experience Canada and become part of a new family. Goals are set high for the coming year to make sure to extend Elite Care Canada’s reputation

Being the best nanny agency is no simple task, but this year’s winner shows that with the right focus and customer-friendly approach, the sky is the limit for success.
Recently crowned as the number-one nanny agency by City Parent’s Readers Selection Awards, Elite Care Canada has been building a reputation as Canada’s premier live-in caregiver service provider for years.
“It is really a question of referrals,” says Elite Care’s program coordinator, Maria McGraw, and indeed it is. Now recruiting from 82 different countries, Elite Care has been able to place caregivers with rich backgrounds in teaching, various languages, special needs, and health. Every family is unique and this diversity has build the reputation Elite Care’s staff stands by. It has been with the remarkable infl ux of referrals that Elite Care has become number-one – not through an assembly line model, but by an intensive focus on quality.
When asked about what’s next, Maria smiles. “We know why we have been voted fi rst place and I can confi dently say that the future is looking very good for providing even more caregivers of this caliber”. The rather large pile of applicants’ fi les her assistant is combing through seems to agree.
Elite Care Canada is number-one today and here to stay.

- Elite Care Canada voted number one by Durham Parent Magazine readers!

Receiving the title of the number one nanny agency from Durham Parent Readers, Elite Care Canada's high standards are being appreciated more and more at the community level.

Having received national recognition for its selection and placement standards, Elite Care Canada is not new to praise, but Durham Parent's Readers Choice Awards has been an occasion their office has marked with some excitement.

Asked why the award is so important, program coordinator Maria explains that, "It isn't a question of just cross-Canada recognition anymore. Our customers have been telling their friends and family in other provinces and municipalities about us for a long time. This is important because now neighbours, other parents at school, and co-workers are talking.

We aren't the big inside secret, but the gold standard now, too".

Building on years of intensive experience, Elite Care Canada has built itself upon a novel and effective strategy by recruiting from many countries simultaneously. Recently, the 82nd country was added to their list - providing caregivers with skills as diverse as the world and many available to start immediately.

"Parents call us because they have a need," McGraw explains, "they need to know their children are in the best hands possible. Our business is geared towards high standards and providing immediate service for those families".

Throughout the office, placement officers, support staff, and legal assistants are busy taking calls and a look at the day's mail, full of caregiver profiles, information for families, and follow-ups, indicates that Elite Care Canada is planning to hold its place as number one for a long time.

- Elite Care has been voted the Top Choice of consumers for Nanny Services from Top Choice Awards!
 

 Elite Care Canada is Canada’s
Top Choice in Child Care

Founded in 2002, Elite Care Canada has developed a reputation for providing the highest standard services in the industry.  

Elite Care recruits from the most diverse range of candidates available in the market to find the perfect caregivers for their diverse clientele. They are proud to offer the best caregivers in the world from over 80 countries offering the languages, skill sets and training that discerning families demand when considering the wellbeing of their children.  

The Elite Care program is one of the most extensive in the world and has made them Canada’s premier caregiver agency. On the forefront their approach is client-focused as they are concerned with the unique needs of each family; it is a streamlined process that makes it easy for the agency to match each family with their preferred nanny. Behind the scenes it is a through - “triple check” – process for candidates; who are screened, undergo background checks and have their qualifications held to diligent scrutiny. So even before the family reviews their first candidate they have piece of mind knowing that they are looking at an elite class of caregivers. We really appreciate the company’s active involvement in avoiding agencies that participate in exploitation and coercion, an often overlooked aspect in the industry.  

The staff of Elite Care are dedicated to each client, ensuring that their case is moving forward at all times. They assist the families and nannies every step of the way: filing papers, conducting research, compiling essential documents, drafting contracts and government papers. In the end, the goal is to ensure the wellbeing of the child and Elite Care truly focuses on removing the burden of the entire process and each procedure involved. Many families have considered hiring a caregiver; but they often deterred by what seems like a complex process and/or the costs. Elite Care Canada is here to help those people, by offering an uncompromising and easy process with 3 tiers of nanny to fit any budget.

 – Voted as the Best Nanny Agency in Toronto!

Toronto's 1st Choice in Nannies

Childcare – childcare with flexibility and heart. No matter what life throws at families, there has always been a place for nannies and live-in caregivers in cities across Canada. As a silver winner in this year’s Sun Readers Choice Awards, Elite Care Canada was voted to be the best nanny agency by readers of all stripes. It says something special that room had to be made in the category along with maid services just to account for this company’s reputation and ongoing support in the community.

Based and operating out of Toronto itself, Elite Care Canada has been the first choice in finding live-in caregivers for many Toronto-area parents going back as long as they can remember. As the nature of careers and family make-up shifts and changes over time, nannies have become an ever-more relevant childcare option – equipping parents with short-term flexibility during emergencies, help at home, as well as the chance to spend more of their time being with family.

With nannies from more than 80 different countries, including Canada, the comfort and professionalism offered by Elite Care delivers the personal connection parents look for in assuring the health, prosperity, and happiness of their children, while also providing families with financial awareness – showing them that a great nanny is not just a wonderful addition to their children’s lives, but an affordable and often prudent choice.

A silver award is welcomed by Elite Care Canada. However, they are not going to rest anytime in the near future. As the Sun readers’ first choice in nanny services, Elite Care is already looking forward to next year and carving out a spot for the gold through another year of showing Toronto parents the integrity and personal connection that made them number one.
