contract between Totalnannies Ltd (“the Agency”) and the client or
employer (“the Client”).
2. The current scale of charges are as follows: Placement Fee equivalent
to 5 weeks salary offered to the candidate. There is a minimum
Placement Fee of £550.00
3. All correspondence and records shall be confidential and remain the
property of the Agency. Information supplied by the Agency is
confidential and is accepted by the Client on the condition
that such information will not be disclosed to 3rd parties.
4. Personal contacts or interviews with prospective candidates or their
acquaintances can be arranged only if the full Placement Fee has
been preauthorized by credit or debit card. After
preauthorization has been received the Client will receive the
candidate’s contact details and will have 7 days in which to
decide whether to hire the candidate or not. After 7 days the
Client’s credit or debit card will be unless the Client contacts the
Agency to inform it that they do not want to confirm the
candidate. Subsequently if the Client decides not to confirm the
candidate the card will be refunded in full. When the Client
receives an offer of a candidate and clinks on the link to confirm
the candidate the Client authorizes the Agency to debit their debit
or credit card with the Placement Fee as per the Agency’s
invoice in order to confirm the candidate. When the Client receives
an offer of a candidate and clicks on the link requesting
further information on the candidate they are requesting the
candidates contact details to contact the candidate directly and
subsequently are authorizing the Agency to preauthorize their
debit or credit card with the Placement Fee as per the Agency’s
invoice.
5. If the Client directly contacts a candidate introduced by the Agency
without the Agency’s authorization the Client will be in breach of
these terms and conditions and the Agency reserves the right
to suspend the search on the Client’s behalf and the registration
will be considered invalidated and non refundable.
6. Should the client effect any form of introduction, direct or indirect,
of a candidate to a third party, or pass on any details resulting in
permanent, short- term, full or part time employment, the Client
will be responsible for the full Placement Fee in accordance to the
Current Scale of Charges.
7. The Agency will endeavour to provide the Client with candidates as well
suited as possible, and to this end will seek to furnish the Client
with all relevant information concerning the candidate and to
check details, documentation and references. However, the final
responsibility for any decision to employ the candidate rests
with the Client, who is therefore strongly advised to check details,
documentation and references personally. The Agency does not
offer any warranty as the suitability, honesty, character or
capability of any candidate.
8. The Agency accepts no liability of any kind for any inconvenience ,
loss or damage to property, or any loss or injury howsoever arising
directly or indirectly from any act of omission of any
candidate introduced by the Agency even if such act of omission is

9. Fees are due on confirmation of a candidate either verbally or in
writing, and not at the commencement of employment. The Client shall

done through the Agency and a subsequent Placement Fee will be due
at a 50% reduced rate as per the Agency’s scale of charges. If

contract has been terminated the contract will be
automatically renewed for a subsequent period equal to that of the
initial contract period and the Client’s credit or debit card will
be charged with the subsequent fees due.
12. If a candidate employed by the Client through the Agency is
re-employed by the Client after the termination of the original
period of employment then a further Placement Fee shall be

by the Client to the Agency if the Agency would have introduced the
candidate to the Client at time of re-employment reduced by 50%.
