Tips to find a great babysitter without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best babysitters on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced babysitters with 10+ years. References matter more than years.
  • Consider a share. If your kids are similar ages and you live near another family, a share is the single biggest cost reduction available without compromising on care.
  • Be specific about hours upfront. Most babysitters will take a slightly lower rate for a guaranteed steady schedule than for a higher-rate, unpredictable one.
  • Bundle benefits thoughtfully. Two weeks PTO, a health stipend, transit passes, education assistance, or an annual raise commitment can help close the gap with families offering a higher hourly rate.
  • Match rate to responsibilities. A higher rate often makes sense once you add cooking, errands, or driving. Don't compare apples to oranges across listings.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Angela Roman! I am 28 years old. I have a bachelors degree in psychology. I used to work in the ABA field, providing therapy to young children with Autism. I loved it but it took a mental toll on me. I absolutely love children and decided that I still wanted to work with children so I became a nanny as I figured out my next steps and I fell in love with it. I currently nanny for a family of three, soon to be four, and I absolutely adore them. I have been with them for 8 months now. I really enjoy reading books on my down time. I am contemplating going back to school for cosmetology but have yet to decide on that.
