Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $18.98/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $17.85/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $18.39/hr | See live-in rates → |
Part-time runs slightly lower per hour than full-time here, which often means strong full-time demand supports higher rates for committed schedules.
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
Hi! I'm Amal. I'm currently studying to become a cardiovascular sonographer and have a genuine love for working with kids. Over the years, I've cared for children of all ages, from infants under one year old to kids around 9–10 years old, and I enjoy getting to know each child's unique personality.
When I'm not studying, I'm usually spending time with my husband, hanging out with my three cats, or enjoying a quiet day at home. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I love helping kids stay active, creative, and engaged while making sure they feel safe and cared for.
I'm excited to meet a great family and be someone both parents and children can feel comfortable with!
