Harmony at Home named Elite Franchise Rising Star – the ONLY Nanny & Household-Staff Agency in the Top 100

We’re thrilled to announce that Harmony at Home has been named an EF100 Rising Star – No.78 (2026) – and we’re the only nanny and household-staff agency in the EF100 Top 100 this year. Judged on growth, strategy and community impact, this recognition validates what we’ve always believed: a values-led franchise can deliver real freedom, leadership and meaningful work in childcare.

We’re also proud to be shortlisted for the EF100 Knights Diversity & Inclusion of the Year Award 2026 – another nod to the inclusive way we build our business and support family friendly flexible working.

What this means for families – and for our local branch owners…

Being in the EF100 and shortlisted for a D&I award isn’t a trophy on a shelf – it’s proof our model works. For families it means they can trust a local, professionally run service. For prospective franchisees it means joining a brand with:

• A proven, repeatable business model that scales locally.
• Outstanding franchisee support (training, marketing, local referral systems).
• A reputation for ethical standards and community impact.

If you want to run a flexible, respected local service that helps families and builds community trust, this is for you.

Why this recognition matters if you’re thinking of joining our franchise network

Ranking among the UK’s best franchise opportunities shows more than growth — it shows stability, support and trust:

• Proven performance: EF100 placement shows consistent results and growth trajectory.
• Franchisee-first support: Training, predictable income pathways and systems designed for part-time and full-time owners.
• Flexible, purposeful work: Many of our franchisees balance caring responsibilities and business ownership – our model supports that lifestyle.
• Trusted brand leadership: Join a network that leads the sector in professional standards and community-first values.

Why Harmony at Home?

We built Harmony at Home to combine professional standards with real-life flexibility. Key differentiators:

• Only nanny & household-staff recruitment agency in the UK that is an active Member of the British Franchise Association (BFA) – we meet the BFA’s high standards of conduct.
• Five-time EF100 listing – consistent performance and sector leadership.
• Predictable, flexible income streams – training, award-winning branding and local referral systems included.
• Real freedom – choose your hours, grow your income, lead locally.

We’re incredibly grateful to our team and local branch owners who make this possible every day.

Being No.78 on the EF100 and a Rising Star wasn’t luck. It reflects local branch owners building sustainable businesses that genuinely solve childcare problems. If you want predictable work with purpose, the Harmony at Home franchise is designed for you.
