Carrollton, TX

Former Employee – worked at MBF

ProsGood rate for nanny and nanny managers. Worked with higher end clients and guest. There were also a lot of opportunities around my area to work.

ConsNot a lot of support from the office staff and management when moving into the permanent side of the agency. Would of liked to seen more advice and help with that transition

Advice to Senior Managementtry and reduce your turnover rate. You want to keep as many nannies as possible. I would constantly go into a client's house and be told about their previous bad experience and made it hard for me!

Cons-no benefits.

Current Employee – been working at MBF

ProsVery flexible. You can chose when you want to work and who you want to work for (for the most part)

ConsThe communication between managers and employees could be better. The lack of communication sometimes leads to what seems like total chaos and confusion between the staff in the office and the nannies in the field.

Advice to Senior ManagementCommunicate better with employees and parents. I've had a few parents tell me that the staff at MBF were rude to them. Also, be sure to go over pricing with both the nannies and the parents. Nothing is more awkward than having to tell a client they didn't pay you enough or having a client say you charged them too much. I cannot stress the importance of improving communication at MBF.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
