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
I run a childcare business and am looking for opportunities to help families and supplement my income when I don't have clients scheduled. I am mostly interested in temporary, occasional or one-time care positions as I would like to keep my schedule fairly flexible but will accept a part-time permanent position if the hours are right. I love working with children and their families and look forward to the opportunities I might find here.

A little bit about me
My name is Vandi. I'm a mother of four boys. Their ages are 22, 19, 17 and 15. I have never been a nanny before but I am a full-time mother. My boys are now very self-sufficient and do not require as much of my time as they used to. I've always been a stay-at-home mom with part-time jobs in here and there. After my divorce, I am focusing on me. I get lonely sitting at home alone. I miss having little ones around. I absolutely adore children. And would love to be of some help to a new mother.
