HostNanny

HostNanny is a mobile + web app that turns the messy day-to-day of hosting an au pair into a shared, auditable operating system. Families and au pairs often clash over vague expectations, shifting schedules, and “he said/she said” misunderstandings. The app provides a structured weekly schedule builder with hour caps, a shared task list with check-in/out, and a simple incident/issue log that documents concerns early (lateness, car use, childcare boundaries) without escalating to drama. It also includes a lightweight “house rules” agreement template and a recurring 10-minute check-in questionnaire to surface problems before they explode. This is not a marketplace; it’s for families who already have an au pair and need smoother coordination. The reality: most people won’t pay for another parenting app unless it saves real time and prevents costly rematches—so the product is built around measurable reductions in conflicts and schedule chaos.
