Tips to find a great full-time nanny without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best full-time nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced full-time nannies 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 full-time nannies 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

As a Medical Assistant , my passion lies in nurturing the growth and development of children. With seven years of experience, I have honed my skills in providing a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. My patience coupled with my creativity and imagination, allows me to engage children in a variety of activities that foster learning and fun.

I believe in open communication with parents and regularly provide updates on their child's day. I am comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents, ensuring consistency and a structured environment for the child.

My approach to childcare involves a mix of outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games that stimulate young minds. I am also a skilled swimmer and would be delighted to teach swimming to your child if you wish.

I am available to care for one child and am happy to assist with tasks like homework , meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision.
