Full-time, part-time, and live-in babysitter rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $20.40/hr | |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $19.28/hr | |
| Live-in | Set by family | $20.43/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 rates are close to live-out here — but the package usually still includes room and board, so the all-in cost can be lower than it appears. 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 Alanna (Lanna). I am 17 years old, I will be 18 in November. I started fully babysitting when my baby cousin was born (3 years ago) and since then all my family members have started asking me to watch their kids while they go out or have work trips. I would love to expand my talents to your children as well. I took a child development course for my freshman year and during my junior year of high school I took a CNA certification class and got CPR certified. In a few months I’ll be taking my CNA board test to see if I can receive my CNA certification. I do have a younger sibling myself so I still take care of my younger brother on the daily. I do have a summer job currently which is only four hours throughout the days so I’m available most of the day to babysit.

A little bit about me
I am a dedicated medical assistant with a strong passion for working with children and supporting families. My experience in healthcare has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attention to detail, which I bring into every caregiving environment. Babysitting allows me to combine my love for childcare with my medical background, helping children feel safe, supported, and cared for. I am currently working toward my long-term goal of becoming a pediatric nurse, and spending time caring for children continues to inspire and motivate me on that journey. I strive to create a positive, nurturing environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable while parents have peace of mind.
