    Is the visa processed by Peekaboo? Is Peekaboo the Sponsor?

    This is an agency sponsored visa – our partner agency will be the sponsor for the nanny. This is the preferred option for 85% of families (vs private sponsorship) as it results in significantly lower cost with no major difference for the family or the helper.

    Can we process the visa differently? Are there cheaper options?

    The fee has been negotiated with several agencies to provide the lowest rate possible in the market. It is based on a Peekaboo volume discount, that can’t be access to as an individual. Note that this special rate is only accessible for Peekaboo registered users.

    What does cancelled visa mean (in the nanny profile)?

    Cancelled visa means that previous employer released her and that she is ready to find a new employer. It doesn’t mean that the nanny is staying here illegally or that the visa has expired.

    Is the process the same if the visa is not in the UAE?

    If you bring a nanny from outside the country, the process can be much heavier. Note that Peekaboo Nannies platform only provides profiles of nannies and maids already in the UAE
