Tips to find a great nanny without overpaying

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

Su familia estaría en buenas manos!

A little bit about me

Mi nombre es Mónica Chávez López, mamá de 4 hermosos niños, y he sido cuidadora de niños y ancianos durante los últimos 3 años. Gracias a mi personalidad burbujeante, he tenido el placer de trabajar como niñera para un niño en el espectro, como alguien a quien no solo le apasiona el cuidado de los niños, sino que también le encanta mostrar empatía hacia los niños y sus emociones. Como niñera, tengo experiencia en la creación de comidas saludables, ayudando con las necesidades básicas como bañarse, arreglarse y vestirse. También tengo experiencia haciendo mandados usando mi propio medio de transporte, manteniendo la casa limpia y con buen olor, siguiendo el progreso del niño, creando manualidades divertidas e interactivas y, por supuesto, CPR/ First Aid con AED capacitación. ¡Creo firmemente en el valor de los niños en nuestras vidas, y me dedico a brindar el máximo cuidado a los pequeños humanos!
