Services
The Central Coast household staffing partner for every season of family life.
BBN helps Santa Barbara and Ventura County families hire the right in-home professional for the way their household actually works: childcare, newborn care, backup care, household management, and broader domestic staffing.
What BBN places
Care and household support built around the home, not a generic job title.
Families rarely need “just a nanny.” They need the right adult in the right role, with the judgment to fit the children, parents, schedule, privacy expectations, household rhythm, and compensation range. BBN’s job is to help define that role clearly, recruit for the real need, and present candidates who make sense for the family.
The agency supports both traditional childcare placements and the broader household roles that keep a busy home moving.
Childcare
Nanny, family assistant, and sitter searches shaped around the children.
BBN helps families separate true childcare needs from household logistics so the role is clear before candidates are introduced.
Household rhythm
Support for the whole week, not just the shift.
The right match considers school flow, errands, home organization, parent schedules, travel, and the tone of the household.
Popular family needs
Start with the role your home actually needs.
Career nanny
Long-term placement
For families who need a steady childcare partner: routines, school runs, developmentally aware care, travel, and a professional presence children can rely on.
Newborn care specialist
Early months / overnight support
For families who need skilled infant support, night help, feeding and sleep rhythm support, recovery support, and calm guidance in the first months home.
Family assistant
Childcare + household logistics
For homes where the person needs to move between children, errands, calendars, vendors, organization, driving, and the daily details parents cannot keep absorbing.
On-call sitter
Backup, date night, visiting families
For local and visiting families who need trustworthy short-term coverage without starting from an open marketplace every time plans change.
Household manager
Home operations
For families who need the house itself to run better: vendors, errands, inventory, calendars, travel prep, and the behind-the-scenes work that keeps the week moving.
Housekeeper
Private home support
For families who need reliable home care, laundry, organization, household reset work, and a professional who understands privacy inside a family home.
Estate manager
Property and vendor oversight
For larger homes that need vendor coordination, household systems, calendars, errands, maintenance oversight, and steady operational judgment.
Personal assistant
Family logistics
For busy households that need help with scheduling, errands, travel prep, gifting, vendors, projects, and the details that keep family life moving.
How BBN scopes the role
The right title comes after the household details are clear.
Many families start with a broad need: more coverage, more order, more help after school, or a smoother week at home. BBN helps turn that into a role candidates can understand and say yes to.
Schedule
School runs, nap windows, evenings, weekends, overnights, travel, and backup coverage.
Responsibilities
Childcare, driving, errands, laundry, meals, vendors, organization, and household reset work.
Fit
Communication style, household pace, privacy needs, child temperament, and parent presence.
Offer
Pay range, guaranteed hours, benefits, commute, duties, and realistic start timing.

Nannies and household professionals
Nannies, newborn specialists, babysitters, family assistants, housekeepers, chefs, and household managers can start here.
Do you only place nannies?
No. Nannies are a core service, but BBN also supports newborn care, babysitting, family assistants, household managers, housekeepers, private chefs, and broader private household roles.
Can BBN help if the role is not fully defined?
Yes. That is often where the agency is most useful. BBN can help separate childcare, family assistant, and household management needs before recruiting starts.
Do families pay the candidate directly?
Yes. BBN is a referral agency. Families pay the household professional directly for hours worked, and agency fees are separate.

Core service areas include Santa Barbara, Montecito, Ventura, Ojai, Solvang, Camarillo, Thousand Oaks, Calabasas, and nearby communities. Select referral-based placements may be considered beyond the core area.
