Executive Screening for Nannies, Household Managers & PAs

At Smart Sitting, trust and transparency are the foundation of every placement. When it comes to hiring long-term household staff — whether a nanny, personal assistant, or estate-level manager — families often want more than just a resume and interview. They want reassurance. They want depth. They want a partner who shares their values.

That’s where Bastian Staffing, our sister agency specializing in high-level household placements, comes in.

We’re proud to offer a Professional Screening & Due Diligence Package designed specifically for private families, principals, and estate managers who need to go beyond standard vetting — with care, discretion, and integrity at every step.

What’s Included in Our Executive Screening Package:

This package is ideal for clients who are conducting their own search and need Smart Sitting-level vetting — whether for a full-time nanny, household manager, family assistant, or other high-trust role.

Our process is guided by our five core values:
Accountability, Adaptability, Professionalism, Genuineness, and Support.

Every step reflects our commitment to both families and candidates — to surface truth while honoring humanity.
