| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $16.21/hr | See full-time rates → |

| Live-in | Set by family | $16.43/hr | See live-in rates → |
Part-time and full-time hourly rates are similar here — short schedules don't always command a premium when full-time openings are easy to fill.
Live-in rates are close to live-out here — but the package usually still includes room and board, so the all-in cost can be lower than it appears. The trade-off is space — you'll need a private bedroom and ideally a separate bathroom for the nanny.

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
I have two pets of my own, a cat named Pine and a dog named Bear. In the past I have had the opportunity to foster bottle kittens, and I am excited to be able to engage in that again in the future.
I love plants and the clean energy that they bring! In my free time I often find myself doing creative projects, like embroidery and painting. I am very excited to get into the art of candle making.
Thank you for reading a little about me and considering me in caring for your most precious possession(s)!

A little bit about me
I do online school so I have a very flexible schedule and I am looking for something more afternoon or night. I don't have a set rate so we can talk to figure out what works best with both of us.
Cooking and slight cleaning is free of course and I just have a five dollar late fee for every twenty minutes you are late. I can do your home or mine. I am pet friendly and smoke free.
I cant wait to hear from you!
