6-9 months ahead for peak periods (Chinese New Year babies, school-holiday pregnancies). 3-4 months minimum for any booking. Top-rated experienced nannies are the first to book out. Last-minute bookings (under 1 month) typically mean scraping the bottom of the barrel — experienced nannies are unavailable, and you risk getting a placement without proper references.
28-day stay-in nanny: S\$2,800-4,200 (standard experience), S\$3,500-5,500 (premium/experienced). Day-only nannies (14-18 hours): S\$3,200-4,800. Twin-care packages: S\$4,500-6,500. Extended stay (42-56 days): S\$5,500-9,000+. HDB/Condo property type affects living arrangements but not package rates.
Look for WSQ Postnatal Care certification (Singapore), Taiwan-based confinement training, or mainland China 月嫂 (yuesao) certification with documented years of practice. Ask for certificates. Equally important: recent client references — a nanny with 50+ newborns under her care reads distress cues faster than a beginner.
This happens — and is the worst possible time to scramble. Reputable agencies have 24-hour replacement policies with vetted backup nannies. Freelance arrangements typically have none. Ask specifically before booking: "If she falls sick on day 14, what happens?" A vague answer means you have no safety net.
For foreign nannies (Malaysian is the most common source), a MOM-licensed EA is legally required. Direct hire of foreign confinement nannies is illegal, same as maid arrangements. For Singaporean or PR nannies, direct arrangements are legal. Most placements go through EAs for the formal work permit, vetting, and replacement guarantee.
