The research is clear. When you reduce your child’s screen time, you’re giving them a huge advantage. Kids who spend more time playing, exploring, and engaging with people rather than screens tend to develop faster. They focus better, express emotions more clearly, and show stronger learning skills. In fact, many of them outperform 95% of their peers.

That’s powerful. And as a parent, it’s also a little overwhelming.

We all want what’s best for our children. We want them to grow into kind, confident, and capable humans. But life is busy. Screens are easy. They keep the peace when you’re making dinner, finishing a work call, or just trying to breathe for five minutes. So how do we give our kids the screen-free childhood they deserve without burning ourselves out?

That’s where House of Yaya comes in.

Real Help for Real Parents

We’re not just a nanny agency. We’re a community of caregivers who believe in giving kids a richer, fuller childhood. At House of Yaya, our nannies are trained to nurture creativity, encourage curiosity, and support emotional growth. They don’t just watch kids. They connect with them.

While screens can keep kids quiet, they don’t build imagination. They don’t help with social skills or emotional regulation. They don’t spark questions or invite messy, joyful play. That kind of learning comes from real-world experiences. It comes from story time on the couch, building forts out of cushions, drawing with sidewalk chalk, dancing in the living room, or chasing butterflies outside.

Our nannies create those moments.

They show up with energy, ideas, and a love for hands-on learning. Whether it’s baking banana bread, planting flowers, doing crafts, or learning letters through play, your child gets the kind of care that leaves them feeling seen, engaged, and happy.

Why Screen-Free Makes Such a Difference

It’s not just about cutting out technology. It’s about making space for what really matters. Kids who spend less time on screens tend to sleep better, show stronger language skills, and develop more empathy. They’re more likely to stay curious, focus longer, and form deeper relationships.

And the best part? It’s not about being perfect. You don’t have to go screen-free 24/7. Even reducing screen time by a few hours a week can have a real impact. Especially when those hours are replaced with meaningful, one-on-one attention from a caregiver who genuinely cares.

Imagine This

You walk in the door after a long day. Your child runs up to you, excited to show you the story they wrote or the clay dinosaur they made. They’ve spent the afternoon talking, laughing, playing, and learning. They’re tired in the best way, not from staring at a screen, but from using their imagination. And you didn’t have to make it all happen by yourself.

That’s the support House of Yaya offers.

We match you with a nanny who fits your family’s values and rhythms. Someone who can help you give your child the kind of childhood they’ll remember, the kind full of connection, discovery, and joy.

Let’s Raise Kids Who Are Fully Alive

Screens will always be around. But they don’t have to shape your child’s early years. There’s a better way. A slower, more thoughtful way. A way that lets kids be kids, and lets parents breathe a little easier.

At House of Yaya, we’re here to help you make that shift. Let us take the pressure off while your child plays, grows, and learns in the real world.
