What drives the price
Most Perris families pay somewhere in the $17–$25/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.
01
Experience
Experience is one of the biggest levers on a nanny's rate.
Nannies with 10+ years, or specialty skills like newborn care or multiple languages, typically command the highest hourly rates.
02
Number of kids
One child is the baseline. Each additional child usually adds $1–$2/hour. Twins and infants tend toward the high end.

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.

A little bit about me
Hello! I’m a 23 year old who recently Graduated from the University of Redlands with my Masters in Education. I completed my Bachelor’s at the University of California, Riverside in 2024 with a major in Liberal Studies. I don’t have much experience being a nanny but I do have a history of working in schools/education with groups of children ranging from K-12! I love working with kids and being able to be there for them as a role model.
Taking into consideration my education, work history, and own teaching philosophy, I believe children deserve to be around fun role models who are capable of providing them with a safe environment, and lead by example.
Side note: I do have a car but it is a 2 seater. Therefore, I am limited on space if any transportation is needed.
