FAQ with the Nanny Brigade:

Ages Served

We find that most children are happier to join the adult party at about 8+ but that is touch and go.  We always tell parents of older children that we do have arts and crafts and games and the older children are welcome to join us to “hang out” we also allow the older children that are in and out to not be checked in and out at the parents discretion, so they are welcome to come in with us or be out enjoying the wedding party.  We do not allow children under the age of 8 that privilege and we always okay it with a parent first.

 Check-in and Check-out 
Parents are ALWAYS welcome in our space they can come hang with us to check on their children, moms can find a place to nurse or feed little ones, etc.  We do ask for the children under the age of 8 are checked out, but are welcome to be in and out as often as the parents would like.  We are flexible.
Activities Using the Farm
We love to utilize the venue!  We will engage in the available activities [ie visiting animals, exploring the lake, feeding horses] likely in small groups with the nannies.
Message for the Parents
Parents will have the opportunity to meet the Nannies immediately upon arrival at the event, and can also email any questions or concerns to brita@thenannybrigade.com prior to the event.  Our teams are Moms and Teachers, with a real passion for and the experience with working with children of all ages!
