Tips to find a great child care provider without overpaying
- Be flexible on experience. Some of the best child care on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced child care 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 child care 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
When I was a young child, I had a nanny of my own and she felt like a big sister in a house of all boys. As I grew up, I couldn't wait to share that same experience with a different family and be able to capture fun moments for their parents like my own did. I have worked with most ages, from newborns to teens and I don't mind the friends that come along with older kids -- it's part of being a kid! Feel free to reach out with any questions, I hope you find the perfect person for your family.
