Shellie Beckham, Founder of Key Nanny Placements

A message from our founder

Welcome to Key Nanny Placements

My name is Shellie Beckham. For over two decades I worked as a private nanny, public school educator, foster and adoptive mother, and social worker. During that time I did not just work with families — I became a part of them.

I know first-hand the magic that happens when a family and a nanny are a perfect match, built on a foundation of deep trust, shared values, goals, and mutual respect. As a prior nanny, I recognize the benefits of a professional who comes in and elevates the standards of childcare.

I founded my agency because finding the ‘right fit’ should not be a guessing game. I wanted to build a bridge that connects families with elite, highly skilled caregivers. As a mother, I know the importance of my child feeling safe and connected with their caregiver, as well as the knowledge that a caregiver has the proper skills to meet my child where they are.

— Shellie Beckham, Founder
