When conducting a pre-employment background screening prior to hiring a nanny, cleaning person or caregiver, it is important to remain compliant with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), as well as find a company that understands the household’s needs and offers responsive customer support. eNannySource was selected by Inc. as the Best Background Check Service for Households 2018. The company offers background checks specifically designed for nannies and caregivers primarily through Backgroundchecks.com, which is both FCRA-compliant and a founding member of the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (now called The Professional Background Screening Association.) Three background screening packages are offered, including a basic search of more than 300 million national criminal records, a Social Security number trace, and a National Sex Offender Registry, along with more comprehensive options offered through Gold and Platinum packages. The average turnaround time is about 2 to 3 business days.
