Not just features.
Real advantages.
Search with confidence before reaching out.
Most job boards give you a name and a photo. Yaya gives you a full picture. Every helper on the platform includes their work history, the languages they speak, their salary expectations, and most importantly, a video greeting. You see and hear who they are before the first message.
- ✓Video introductions on every profile
- ✓Full work history and family experience
- ✓Reference information when available
- ✓Profiles verified before going live

Every family in the UAE has different needs. Whether you're looking for a live-in nanny, part-time babysitter, housemaid, cook, or driver, Yaya helps you quickly surface relevant profiles using advanced filters and Yaya AI.
- ✓Filter by role, salary, skills, and experience
- ✓Live-in or live-out preference
- ✓Language and nationality filters
- ✓Yaya AI helps surface relevant caregiver matches
No middlemen. No delays.
Traditional agencies control the conversation. On Yaya, families and caregivers communicate directly. Use in-app messaging, continue on WhatsApp, or arrange a phone call when you're ready to interview.
- ✓In-app messaging with full conversation history
- ✓WhatsApp for faster communication
- ✓Direct phone contact when ready
- ✓Speak directly with helpers
Agencies Charge. Groups lack consistency and trust. Yaya delivers where it matters.
Agencies are expensive and inflexible. Facebook groups are unverified and unstructured. Yaya gives you real choice and real confidence before you hire anyone.
- Limited pool of available caregivers
- Communication handled through the agency
- Placement fees and ongoing commissions
- "Replacement-focused" model instead of long-term matching
- Lower nanny take-home pay can affect retention
- Better suited for urgent or short-term coverage
