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
I am currently looking for a nannying position as a job that would allow me to make some money while leaving time for wedding planning!
Having always loved kids I started babysitting when I was around 15 years old! I have experience with a plethora of child care, from work as a mother's helper and weekly babysitting, to part time nannying and teaching kids in Sunday school. Most recently (Jun 2024-Jun 2025) I worked for a family with two kiddos ages 3 & 6. I picked them up from school three times a week, fed them dinner, got them ready for bed, and of course had a blast finding creative ways to have fun!

A little bit about me
I have been working as a nanny on and off for the last 8 years. I have cared for a wide range of children, from picky eaters, no sleepers and special needs.
Being a mother has taught me so much more about working as a nanny than I ever could have imagined. Late nights, early mornings, or long days are nothing new for me. I am prepared to a part of your team, which ever position that may be! I consider myself to be a bubbly, caring. and kind people person, who is looking forward to meeting you!
