Reliable, consistent care plays a vital role in a child’s emotional, social, and academic development. That’s precisely why Oliver’s Nannies developed Olico™, a proprietary process designed to create the perfect match between families and nannies.
At Oliver’s Nannies of Charleston, Olico™ is our detailed, personalized matching system that connects every family with a nanny who naturally reflects their unique parenting approach.
Why Is Choosing the Right Nanny So Important?
For families in Charleston, providing children with consistent care is essential for fostering a sense of safety and security. Consistency supports healthy development by establishing dependable routines and reinforcing key skills such as emotional regulation, resilience, and adaptability.
However, consistency goes beyond just following the same daily schedule. It also involves steady affection, clear discipline, and uniform expectations. Selecting a nanny who understands and embodies your preferred child-rearing style is critical for creating a stable, nurturing environment for your child.
What Exactly Is Olico™?
Olico™ is the exclusive matching system used by Oliver’s Nannies of Charleston to connect families with nannies best suited to their needs. Effective nanny placement requires more than just availability—it requires matching values, personalities, and care philosophies.
Years of experience have shown us that nanny care naturally falls into three distinct styles. Each nanny is categorized by Olico™ based on their strengths and values, and each type suits different children and family dynamics. When a family and nanny share similar child care philosophies, it results in a stronger, more harmonious partnership.
The first step in Olico™ is identifying which nanny style best fits your child’s needs and personality.
The Three Olico™ Nanny Styles Explained
Nurturers
Nurturers prioritize warmth, affection, and flexibility. They provide a loving, comforting atmosphere that encourages creativity and emotional security. This style suits sensitive children who thrive with gentle guidance and emotional support.
Engagers
Engagers focus on active learning and stimulation—whether through academics, play, or developmental activities. These nannies are a great match for curious, outgoing children who enjoy exploring new experiences.
