Yerevan and the rest of Armenia
Why families in Yerevan are asking for this
Armenian families have always managed on their own, and there is a great deal to be said for it. But Yerevan moves faster than it did, and the jobs pile up faster than anyone clears them. Handing a stranger your child, or your keys, takes some confidence. That is why we check every candidate, and why we work across Armenia.

Questions
What people ask most often
How is a mother’s help different from a nanny?
A nanny is responsible for the child and works alone while the parents are out. A mother’s help usually works alongside you and takes a mixed round of jobs – some with the child, some in the house and the kitchen. It suits parents who want to do the raising themselves and still need some of the load taken off them.
Does she need a teaching qualification?
No. Experience, common sense and getting on with children and parents matter more. A qualification counts in her favour; it does not decide the choice.
What does a mother’s help cost in Yerevan?
It depends on the hours, how much of the house comes into it and whether she is left alone with the child. Our fee is 50 % of one month’s salary, of which the client pays 25 %. We will name the range at the first consultation.
Can we have her part-time?
Yes. Part-time, or a few days a week, is the usual arrangement for this job. The schedule goes into the agreement.
What if she does not suit?
The agreement allows up to three free replacements. After the first day we stay in touch and help with whatever comes up.
