Matchmaking
Session
When you invest in a partnership with Seaside Staffing Company, our first step is to have a heart-to-heart, face-to-face conversation. We'll talk about your must-haves and your dream list, and we'll create and review detailed job descriptions. Then, our placement coordinators will get to work on finding your right-fit candidate.

Candidate
Selection
You'll receive 3 - 5 candidate packages to review, and once you've decided who you want to connect with, we'll set up Zoom interviews* and home trials**.
*In California, all childcare providers are fingerprinted and registered with the Trustline™ Registry before initial interview, which includes candidates being fingerprinted and registered with DOJ, FBI, California Department of Social Services, and the Central Childcare Index.

Matched Hire
After you've picked your preferred candidate, we'll help put together their job offer with you and run any extra background checks that are needed. All background checks include a Social Security number trace, all counties of residence checked for criminal activity, and a DMV report. Initial candidate packages contain documented references and we scour the web and double check all social media platforms.
HUGE VALUE WORKING WITH THIS COMPANY
For those looking for work in the domestic field - there is a huge value in registering with a company such as Seaside. The team will help you in preparing a "packet" and notify you of a "match", so you do not have to constantly check job postings. Dara and her team also negotiate to get you a fair offer. This allows you to focus on the specific job you're required to perform knowing you have advocates that care as much about you as the families they place you with. Win-Win for both sides.
