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 everyone my name is Sarah Richardson and I have two little boys of my own who are 10 and 7. I'm super excited to help any family out there looking for an upbeat, positive, responsible, and trustworthy nanny/housekeeper. I am expecting baby #3, only about 11 weeks, but I can work regardless of my pregnancy or not, I always have. I can do some lifting, Incase your baby needs to be held or needs help up on the playground...and yes, I love to engage children outside as much as possible..but keeping us all safe through this summer heat. I'll take them swimming if it's permitted and do pick picnics in the park too. I'm comfortable doing homework, I once was a certified English/Reading teacher, so a lil tutoring is just fine with me if need be. I'm dependable and will be on time to work. Your child(ren) will adore me, I promise, but they'll also know they're safe with me and that rules will not be broken. Lok forward to meeting y'all!!
