Wedding & Event Nannies in Vancouver

Puffin Services is licensed for Vancouver and staffs event nannies across the city — downtown, Kitsilano, Point Grey, Mount Pleasant, and the East Side. Caregivers are employed by the agency and CRRP-cleared, which is the part worth checking whoever you book with in a city where a lot of event childcare is arranged through individual sitters. Wedding nannies in Vancouver are booked for hotel ballrooms and waterfront venues as often as for private celebrations, and the caregivers are employed by the agency rather than introduced to you.

Standard rate$40/hrper nanny · 4-hour minimum per day
Overtime rate$60/hrper nanny · past 8 hours in a day

Vancouver is priced identically to every other municipality: $40/hr per nanny, no downtown premium, no bridge or travel surcharge, and no zone pricing. Parking and venue access at a downtown hotel are worth mentioning when you book, but they do not change the rate.

Your card is held, not charged. The booking form returns a non-binding estimate first.

What Vancouver events tend to look like

  • Downtown hotel ballrooms and conference floors, which almost always have a breakout room available.
  • Waterfront and convention venues, common for corporate family days and conferences as well as weddings.
  • Restaurant and private-dining buyouts, where space for children is tight and needs settling in advance.
  • Gallery, museum, and heritage venues, several of which restrict where children can go.
  • Park and garden ceremonies with the reception at a nearby venue.

Downtown venues are the most likely to already have a suitable side room and the most likely to have rules about it — ask what the room can be used for, not just whether it is free.

How event nannies work, in detail

The rate, the staffing formula, and what is included are the same in Vancouver as everywhere else we work, so they live in one place rather than being repeated on each city's page. The full guide covers worked totals for a reception, a ten-hour wedding day and a two-day event; how many nannies a given guest list needs; what is and is not included; and how event bookings differ from hourly childcare.
