Live in Caregiver Program For Foreign
Caregivers (Nanny)
Register To Be a" Live In Caregiver "(Nanny) in Canada
In Canada there is recognition that within Canada there is a labor market need
for" Live-in Caregivers"
It is also recognized that generally there are not sufficient Canadians or
Permanent Residents available to fill these positions.
In response to this, the Live In Caregiver program was established. A live in
caregiver is someone who provides continuous, full-time, unsupervised care of
children, the elderly or the disabled in a private household.
A mandatory component of the program is that the caregiver must Live-In the
employer’s home. Employers must demonstrate the need for a caregiver to live in
the home to the officials at Human Resources Department Canada (HRDC) Once it
is determined that the employer has demonstrated the need for a Live In
Caregiver, they endorse a contract so the employer may bring a foreign worker.
There is no shortage of workers for in-home care giving positions on a live-out
basis, but to find one to live in the employers home that is a Permanent
Resident is difficult.
