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.

Hi there! My name is Sammy Thomas and I'm a second-year student studying Nursing at the University of Iowa. I'm looking for a family to nanny for either full- or part-time between December 20th and January 20th.

Hello!
I recently started looking for a part time nanny job to work in my off time from my full time job. I currently work at the university of Colorado school of medicine in their admissions department. I love what I do but truly miss a more active fun job. I was a nanny for my nephew and two nieces full time till they were 3, 5, and 6. They have moved out of state unfortunately but I would love to nanny again. I have reliable transportation and am CPR certified. Feel free to ask me any questions about myself or my past experience!
