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

ArrangementTypical hoursAverage rate
Full-time35–50 hrs/week$15.40/hr
Part-time10–25 hrs/week$14.56/hr
Live-inSet by family$15.26/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

Hi! I’m Julianna :) I’m a babysitting certified, CPR and AED certified sitter, currently working on my EpiPen certification. I’m super responsible, fun, and absolutely love working with kids! I’m very active — I surf, run cross-country, play tennis, and work out regularly, so I have tons of energy to keep up with active kids and love playing outdoors. I’m also a great student, volunteer often, and attend church weekly. I’ve babysat for family and friends and always bring patience, safety, and kindness to every home. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping kids entertained, or just being a calming presence, I do my best to make sure kids feel safe, happy, and heard. I’d love to support your family however I can!
