Who We Are

At Coastal Care, we believe that exceptional childcare starts with understanding both children and families. Founded by a professional with hands-on nanny experience, a background in youth development, and training in psychology, our agency brings a unique perspective to nanny placement.

We don’t just match families with caregivers — we thoughtfully pair children and nannies using a psychology-informed, highly personalized process. Our approach ensures that each nanny placement supports the child’s emotional, social, and developmental needs while fitting seamlessly into your family’s lifestyle.

1. Building Comfortable Bonds

We believe the foundation of exceptional childcare is a strong, trusting relationship. Our process prioritizes creating genuine bonds between families, children, and nannies, fostering an environment where everyone feels understood, supported, and valued.

2. Focusing on the Child’s Development

Every child is unique, with their own interests, strengths, and needs. We use a psychology-informed approach to consider each child’s developmental stage and personal growth, ensuring the caregiver not only provides excellent care but also encourages learning, curiosity, and confidence.

3. Thoughtful and Personalized Matching

Finding the right caregiver is more than checking boxes on a resume. Our process includes in-depth interviews, careful assessment of personalities, and consideration of family dynamics. Each match is intentional, ensuring compatibility and long-term success.

4. Professionalism and Integrity

We uphold the highest standards in every placement. Families can trust that our nannies are vetted, experienced, and committed to nurturing children in a safe and positive environment.

5. Local Expertise and Community Connection

Our deep knowledge of Naples allows us to connect families with caregivers who understand the local schools, programs, and culture, ensuring a seamless integration into your family life.

Hi, I’m Carmen, founder of Coastal Care Nanny Agency. My journey began as a full-time nanny, where my passion for working with children and supporting families amplified. I saw firsthand how important it is to find caregivers who are not just qualified, but trustworthy, nurturing, and a true fit for a family’s unique needs.

This inspired me to study child psychology and development, deepening my understanding of how children grow, learn, and thrive. Combining hands-on experience with professional knowledge, I created Coastal Care to help families in Naples find caregivers they can trust, and to ensure every child receives personalized, thoughtful care.

I understand how stressful and challenging finding childcare can be — and my mission is to make that process seamless, safe, and comforting for both families and nannies.

At Coastal Care, it’s not just about filling a position — it’s about building meaningful, lasting relationships that support children’s growth and bring peace of mind to families.
