What does an Executive Housekeeper do beyond standard cleaning?

An Executive Housekeeper from Georgia's Dream Nannies serves as the 'Interior COO' of your home. Beyond deep cleaning, they manage couture-level laundry care, hand-press fine linens, perform seasonal wardrobe rotations, maintain par levels of household supplies, and coordinate with other household staff — ensuring your residence operates at a five-star hotel standard.

Are your Executive Housekeepers trained in luxury fabric and surface care?

Yes. Our Executive Housekeepers specialize in the chemistry of luxury — understanding that silk, cashmere, century-old rugs, quartzite countertops, and high-end finishes require specific, non-negotiable care protocols. Every candidate is vetted through our proprietary skills assessment to ensure they can preserve the museum-quality standards of your estate.

How long does it take to place an Executive Housekeeper, and do you offer live-in options?

Placement timelines vary based on your specific requirements, but our typical process takes 2–4 weeks from initial consultation to placement. We offer both live-in and live-out Executive Housekeepers. All candidates undergo thorough background checks, reference verification, and sign strict Non-Disclosure Agreements to protect your family's privacy.

When should we book a Newborn Care Specialist?

We recommend booking 3–6 months before your due date to ensure availability, especially for peak seasons. Our Newborn Care Specialists are in high demand across Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas.

Can a Newborn Care Specialist help with multiples (twins or triplets)?

Yes, we specialize in placing Newborn Care Specialists with experience caring for twins and triplets. These specialists are trained in managing the unique feeding schedules, sleep conditioning, and developmental needs of multiple infants simultaneously.

Does the Newborn Care Specialist stay in the room with the baby?

Typically yes. Our NCS professionals provide 24/7 or overnight monitoring and care, staying in or near the nursery to handle all nighttime feedings, soothing, and diaper changes so parents can get the restorative sleep they need.

What is the difference between a Newborn Care Specialist and a night nanny?

A Newborn Care Specialist (NCS) is a highly trained professional with expertise in infant development, sleep conditioning, lactation support, and reflux management — far beyond what a standard night nanny provides. Our NCS professionals bring clinical-level precision to your nursery during the critical Fourth Trimester.

How long does a Newborn Care Specialist typically stay with a family?

Most families engage a Newborn Care Specialist for 6–16 weeks, covering the critical Fourth Trimester period. Some families extend the engagement until the baby reaches a consistent 12-hour sleep cycle, which our specialists work to achieve by four months of age.

Georgia Tax Note: Georgia has a state income tax (1%–5.49%), which should be factored into compensation planning for household employees.

Seasonal Factor: Savannah’s tourism season (March–October) creates additional demand for temporary household staff, particularly for families who host frequently or manage vacation properties.
