About Us
Moyra Stephen has been the owner/president of Cardinal Nannies & Caregivers Inc. since 1985 when she recognized a need for reliable, quality in-home care for her own family and others. Initially, providing Nannies for children and those with disabilities and then with the growing number of requests for Caregivers for elderly, she expanded into that sector and we have been serving clients safely in their own homes, Long-Term Care facilities, hospitals and retirement homes in the Durham Region, Northumberland County and the GTA for the past 40 years.

OUR NANNIES AND CAREGIVERS
Cardinal Nannies and Caregivers are honest, reliable, professional caregivers who are experienced and caring people. In choosing to work for Cardinal, they have chosen to work one-on-one with our clients, rather than in a group situation. We believe this results in greater job satisfaction for our caregivers, choice of hours, and enables us to keep long-term, experienced people on staff.
Many of our caregivers have degrees, including: Early Childhood Education (ECE), Early Childhood Assistant (ECA), Child and Youth Worker (CYW), Social Service Worker (SSW), Developmental Service Worker (DSW), Personal Support Worker (PSW) Health Care Aid (HCA), and Registered Practical Nurse (RPN).
We recruit from local communities for our live-out positions, and across Canada for our live-in positions. We have also placed many nannies from Quebec in live-in positions in Ontario. This has been a successful cultural exchange, as the French speaking nannies tutor the children in French while improving their English skills.
