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

Hi! My name is Morgan, and I’m a responsible, caring, and energetic caregiver with years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I’ve spent many years serving in church childcare programs, including helping with overnight camps, where I learned how to create a safe, fun, and structured environment while keeping kids engaged and supported. I am certified in First Aid and hold my EMR (Emergency Medical Responder) certification, so safety is always my top priority and parents can feel confident knowing their children are in capable hands. I’m currently working toward my degree in psychology, which has given me a deeper understanding of child development, behavior, and emotional needs. I truly love building positive connections with kids, encouraging their growth, and supporting families in any way I can. I aim to be someone children feel comfortable with and parents fully trust.

Hi! My name is Kendall and I’m a 21 year old college student looking to help out more families! I’ve been very involved with childcare since my junior year of highschool and have always loved kids of all ages. Childcare has brought out the best version of myself, high energy, enthusiasm, kindness, and it really has opened my eyes to how much I truly enjoy helping kids. I plan to earn my degree in healthcare to be able to provide mental and physical help to kids in the future. Since I was 16 I’ve been babysitting, but I’m looking to take things to the next level now and become a full-time nanny for a loving family out there!
