What clients and staff are saying

“I was also really happy with my entire “temporary nanny” experience with Town & Country.  You guys made it really easy for me to request a Nanny, and it allowed me to concentrate on the rest of my hectic life with one less thing to worry about.  Many, many thanks!”  —Rachel
“I will always remember how your company came to my rescue 2 days before my September 1999 wedding.  We needed childcare for 5 or 6 guests’ children, and the Mountain View agency we had made arrangements with suddenly fell through. Someone at Stanford Park Hotel told us to give you a call and we were amazed at how seamlessly and efficiently you handled it.  Just like you do now:)“ —Jane
“Even when you need a temporary Nanny, finding the right match is important.  Town & Country Resources has the largest pool of temporary, on-call Nannies in the Bay Area.  We know these Nannies very well and can find someone who will be the right fit for you.”  —Melissa Browne, Town & Country Resources
