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.

Recent reference

"Reiley has been babysitting for our family for nearly two years, and we truly couldn’t ask for anyone better. She is exceptionally dependable, and I have complete peace of mind knowing our child is in her care. She strikes a wonderful balance between being engaging and fun while also maintaining consistency and structure. Her background working in childcare centers gives us added confidence, especially knowing she is CPR-trained and experienced in professional caregiving environments. Most importantly, she has become like family to us. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a trustworthy, capable, and caring nanny or babysitter."
