Mlezi homeFAMILY CARE · EAST AFRICA

Find the right care for your family in Kenya.

Families in Kenya use words such as nanny, househelp, house help and maid when looking for help at home. On Mlezi, start with the actual duties you need, then compare each caregiver’s stated services.

A nanny, a maid or a househelp?

These words can describe different jobs. Mlezi currently focuses on childcare caregivers. Childcare experience does not automatically include general cleaning, laundry or cooking for the whole household. Confirm household duties separately with the person you are considering.

Live-in or live-out care

A live-in arrangement includes living at the family’s home. A live-out or day nanny commutes to work. For live-out care, use the location filter to look for an area such as Nairobi, Mombasa or Kisumu; results depend on the caregivers actually listed.

Compare care, not just a label

Choose newborn and maternity care, occasional babysitting, special needs care or travel childcare according to your family’s needs. Browse for free, review experience and public employer feedback, and interview before making an agreement.
