What drives the price

Also factor in: live-in vs. live-out · household duties beyond childcare · driving · cooking · travel.

Full-time, part-time, and live-in babysitter rates

ArrangementTypical hoursAverage rate
Full-time35–50 hrs/week$17.76/hr
Part-time10–25 hrs/week$16.52/hr
Live-inSet by family$16.54/hr

Part-time runs slightly lower per hour than full-time here, which often means strong full-time demand supports higher rates for committed schedules.

Live-in arrangements look cheaper per hour because room and board are part of the package. The trade-off is space — you'll need a private bedroom and ideally a separate bathroom for the babysitter.

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

My name is Stephanie Escobar I’m a Clinical Mental health counseling graduate student who is looking for a flexible job as the demands of graduate school are high and I have a couple of trips coming up. I thought about babysitting because I’m passionate about kids, I grew up babysitting my mom’s friend’s sons and daughters, later I worked at Advance Learning Academy as a teacher assistant and aftercare coordinator, I worked with kids with disabilities as well as from K through 5th grade. During that time I would sometimes babysit 2 young boys ages 10 and 12 and my niece who was 5 at the time. I’m the person family and friends think of when they need a babysitter. I’m thrilled to be able to use my gifts and talents to contribute to others positively (:
