At Sidekick, we believe that life should be focused on the things that really matter. Whether that is your family or friends; your health, career or passion, it’s important you create a lifestyle that allows you to spend more time on the things most important to you. With hectic schedules, demanding professions, and an overwhelmingly long lists of “to-dos,” balance doesn’t seem to exist and too often our free time is spent doing necessary but unfulfilling tasks.
Sidekick was born out of a constant stream of feedback coming from busy families working with The Nanny Network. It became very clear that there needs to be more options for household support and there needs to be a flexible service offering that allows more households to afford support. Enter Sidekick. Sidekick is a sister agency to The Nanny Network, designed to work in tandem to deliver a variety of effective household management and lifestyle solutions. We’re glad you’re here —now meet the Sidekick team!
