You can certainly try and it helps that she has related work experience. Make sure you have sufficient income and appropriate housing.

Yes we have our own house that she can stay.Does she need work certicate or proof that she work as a nanny? she only finish high school didnt go to college.

Keep in mind that she doesn’t have to stay with you. You still have to pay her a wage and if she chooses, she can live elsewhere.

You can try. Your application may be more scrutinized because it is a family member. You will need to set up a business number with CRA so that you can pay wages and issue pay stubs etc. You will need to provide NOAs to show you can afford to hire a caregiver. Your wage for your sister must be equal to or above the median wage for your region.

Always better if she has training as a caregiver. Unfortunately there was a lot of abuse of the caregiver program by families so there will be a lot of scrutiny of your application. If she gets refused she should try working for another family.
