I Support HER: Marquis Anne Skold
Throughout the month of March, you are going to hear me talking a lot about partnering, promoting and supporting woman-owned businesses. As my annual gratitude project, I am on the Executive Board of WO3 Connect which is a nonprofit GRASSROOTS movement to support female entrepreneurs.
In fact, our “call to action” is to encourage people to come together annually in the month of March and especially on Saturday, March 25, 2023 to support ANY woman-owned business
One day we hope this movement will as popular as “Small Business Saturday”.
In honor of WO3 I am delighted to feature partner, promote and support Marquis Anne Skold
Marquis Anne is Founder and CEO of Nanny Village, a staffing agency that helps families and entrepreneurs find outstanding care and household support through the placement of experienced nannies, newborn care specialists, private educators, family assistants and private chefs.
As a Mom of three, Marquis has first-hand experience of what a thoughtfully matched nanny can bring to a busy working family in need of support.
After many challenges and incompatible nanny matches, she quickly realized how finding the right fit for her family made all the difference. In addition to the reliable support she received from a seasoned nanny, Marquis soon began to see how their lives became intertwined as they celebrated milestones and birthdays, and grieved the loss of loved ones together over the years. They had become like family.
In addition to matching families with their ideal nanny, Marquis understands a professionally screened caregiver is key. After her own family experienced their own horror story when their childhood nanny, who was not properly vetted, became headline news for violent criminal offenses. It is this experience that drives Marquis’ dedication to providing a meticulous candidate screening and interviewing process, which includes multiple rounds of one-on-one interviews, reference checks, fingerprinting and an extensive background check.
Marquis is passionate about providing resources for families of all backgrounds through education and community building. With plans of launching additional services to help families, Marquis aims to connect more families to exciting new platforms, programs and products.
Prior to launching Nanny Village, Marquis provided marketing, recruitment and event planning support for companies in the entertainment industry. Check out my conversation with Marquis in the video below!
