Hello,
We would like to bring a nanny / caregiver for my kid from india to canada. We moved from india to canada an year back and the many had been with our kid in india ever she was 2. What would be the best possible legal pathway to bring a nanny to Canada and what’s the minimum wage per annum to be paid?
Appreciate response from someone who has gone through the process.

thanks

All the information to hire a caregiver is in the link. First, you need to show that you could not hire a nanny in Canada. So you need to post the job locally in your area. The position must be full-time and meet the median wage in your area. So estimated $16-17 per hour plus benefits. This is a salary of about $30-35k per year depending on where you live and duties. You need to show that you meet LICO and then add the salary. So you want a household income over $100k to show that you can afford a nanny. You set up a business registration for payroll. Once approved, your nanny can apply to work through the HCCP program

For the HCCP, your nanny must take IELTS and get her education assessed. She needs at least a year of university or college education.
