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

Intro
Hi my name is Siara! I have always been the "mom" friend and it really showed when I started babysitting at 13. I loved it and still am doing it to this day here and there. When I became a senior in high school and it came time to get a job, it was a no brainer for me, I knew it had to be something with kids. I got a job at the YMCA being an after school counselor and loved doing it for about 2 years. I really enjoy doing crafts and fun science activities with any of the kids that I watch.
Experience
I have experience with kids ranging from one year old twins to preteens, as well as multiple children households. I'm acquainted with households with pets. I can provide references upon request. The families that I have nannied for over the years end up becoming like my family.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Sofia! I’m a caring, energetic, and creative person with a genuine passion for working with children. I’ve always loved being around kids and getting to be part of their little world—whether that’s playing, learning, getting creative, exploring outside, or simply making them laugh!

I have experience as a preschool teacher, babysitter, and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), and I’m also babysitter certified and CPR, AED, and First Aid certified. These experiences have taught me so much about patience, communication, and meeting each child where they are.

I’m naturally very warm and playful, but I also understand the importance of being responsible, dependable, and respectful of each family’s routines and parenting style. I genuinely love watching kids learn new things, build their confidence, and be their funny, silly selves. I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family feels comfortable and happy having around!
