Aunt Ann's In House

Aunt Ann's In House is a third-generation, family-owned domestic staffing agency that has been serving San Francisco Bay Area families since 1958. With over 60 years of experience, they specialize in matching households with highly skilled domestic professionals including nannies, housekeepers, estate managers, private chefs, and personal assistants. As San Francisco's original household staffing agency, they have built lasting relationships with three generations of clients through their personalized, face-to-face matching process.

Aunt Ann's In-House Staffing operates as the San Francisco Bay Area's leading domestic and nanny agency, focusing exclusively on placing exceptional household staff in private homes. Their comprehensive approach begins with rigorous screening processes, including independent background checks - a standard they pioneered in the industry during the late 1980s. The agency maintains the highest industry standards for hiring practices and was the first SF Bay Area agency to require work authorization for representation.

The company's success stems from their highly interpersonal matching process, where team members meet face-to-face with both candidates and employers to understand personalities, working styles, and employment preferences. Unlike online services, this personal approach enables them to discern the perfect fit between families and domestic professionals, ensuring mutually beneficial long-term relationships.

Aunt Ann's serves families throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including San Francisco, San Mateo County, Marin County, East Bay cities, and Wine Country locations like Napa Valley and Sonoma. Their service area encompasses affluent communities such as Atherton, Menlo Park, Hillsborough, Los Altos, Palo Alto, and Woodside, where they've earned trust through consistent, reliable service.

The agency offers a unique fee structure that benefits clients significantly. They charge no registration fees to start the search process, saving clients $150-$500 compared to competitors. Placement fees are only charged after successful placement, with an up-to-five-day work trial period and a one-year fee credit guarantee if unexpected termination occurs. Their placement fees are considerably lower than other staffing companies while including additional services like legal job offers and employment agreements drafted by employment law attorneys.

All domestic professionals in their network possess 2-40 years of experience, with many having formal training in their areas of expertise. The agency maintains partnerships with wage, labor, and payroll experts to ensure all employment arrangements are legitimate and mutually respectful, accepting job orders only from clients who follow proper wage and labor laws.
