Pavillion Agency Explained

Pavillion Agency is a domestic staffing agency based in Manhattan, New York. The agency places nannies, chefs, chauffeurs, butlers, housekeepers, baby nurses, domestic couples, personal assistants and laundresses.[1]

In particular, Pavillion Agency provides nannies to high-wealth families that have very specific requirements.[2] For instance, these requirements may include that a nanny can teach Mandarin or other second language, has a background in education, considerable previous nannying experience, or is able to work hours that extend beyond the 40-50 workweek common in the industry.[3]

History

Pavillion Agency was founded in 1962. In 1979, current Pavillion Agency CEO Keith Greenhouse joined the company; in 1982, Greenhouse's brother and current Pavillion Agency president Cliff Greenhouse also became part of the family business.[4] Current vice president Seth Norman Greenberg joined the company soon after.[5] The 2000s saw expansion for Pavillion that was owed in part to an increasing primacy placed on personal service by many wealthy families in New York City.[6]

Membership

Pavillion Agency is a member of the International Nanny Association.[7] [8] [9]
