What Nanny Poppins does

Nanny Poppins Agency is a woman-owned, founder-operated domestic staffing placement agency founded in 1995 by Jennifer Bouchard in Marblehead, Massachusetts, and expanded nationwide in 2007. The company matches families with vetted domestic professionals across a broad service catalog spanning three categories: Child Care & Family Placements (nannies, newborn care specialists, special needs caregivers, elder care), Household Placements (executive housekeepers, house managers, household managers, estate managers), and Lifestyle Placements (personal assistants, private security). The agency's primary technology is a candidate database of over 100,000 qualified candidates, described as the largest pool in the domestic placement industry, supplemented by standard pre-employment background checks; no proprietary AI or digital platform is disclosed.

The business operates on a placement-fee revenue model with no upfront costs or registration fees to clients; payment is due only upon a successful candidate placement after background checks are completed. Go-to-market is sales-led via direct, dedicated account managers, free seven-day-a-week consultations, and an inside sales team that responds same business day. Distribution is nationwide across six regional offices (California, Florida, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey), supplemented by a split-placement recruiter network and a reciprocal partnership with GTM Payroll for household payroll services.

The company primarily serves high-net-worth families, with secondary segments including C-Suite executives, private estates and legacy families, and households seeking flexible or short-term staffing. It is BBB A+ accredited, a member of the International Nanny Association, received the 2022 GTM Agency Achiever recognition, and maintains over 1,000 five-star Google reviews at a 4.9 rating. Ownership is concentrated with founder Jennifer Bouchard (President and Founder), with a small leadership team including Emily Thompson (Creative Director and Senior Recruiter), Jenn Sherr (Recruitment Coordinator and Senior Account Manager), and Delia Nava (Office Manager). The company is a private LLC with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company.
