Also factor in: live-in vs. live-out · household duties beyond childcare · driving · cooking · travel.

Full-time, part-time, and live-in child care provider rates

ArrangementTypical hoursAverage rate
Full-time35–50 hrs/week$16.39/hr
Part-time10–25 hrs/week$15.03/hr
Live-inSet by family$15.45/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 child care provider.

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

My name is Samantha and I love working with children. I've spent years babysitting my family and now I'd like to explore jobs in the same category. I'm able to do housework and babysitting that includes entertaining children of all ages. I'm a 17 year old High School graduate from Westlake and I love dedicating myself to helping other families in need. Babysitting and getting the opportunity to help children be safe and entertained while even potentially learning is something I'm very passionate about. I'm also skilled enough to tutor lower levels of Science and English, and almost all levels of Math. I'm very friendly, flexible and patient and can't wait to find families I can help!

A little bit about me

I’m a senior in high school, I love being with kids and caring for them and putting my responsibility skills to use. I want to be a social worker some day and not only does babysitting make me happy, but It gets me a step closer to that career and I can use it as experience to put on resúmes but most importantly out in the field when it counts. I am willing to do the little things that all add up whether it be teaching kids the alphabet or doing the dishes 🙂
