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

Soy nanny y guía Montessori, titulada en Educación Infantil, con más de 10 años de experiencia trabajando con niños de diferentes edades, desde bebés hasta etapa preescolar.

Mi enfoque se basa en el respeto, la autonomía y el desarrollo emocional del niño, siguiendo los principios Montessori y adaptándolos a cada familia. Me considero una persona responsable, cariñosa, paciente y muy comprometida, con una gran vocación por el cuidado y la educación infantil.

Creo firmemente en crear un entorno seguro, estable y afectuoso, donde los niños se sientan comprendidos y acompañados en su crecimiento. Para mí, la comunicación con los padres es fundamental, por lo que mantengo siempre una relación cercana, transparente y de confianza.

Si buscan a alguien que cuide de sus hijos con el mismo respeto y dedicación que ustedes, estaré encantada de que se pongan en contacto conmigo para conocernos mejor.

"Marylin cared for my mother (84) for two with gentleness and dedication. My mother had terminal cancer and needed constant companionship, medication management, and assistance with her personal hygiene. In the beginning, she was able to care for herself, but the last three months were the most difficult. Marilyn’s experience caring for patients made the process much smoother, especially when my mother became bedridden. Her advice on changing the bed and mattress and how to bathe her was incredibly helpful and made those final days more comfortable for my mother. We are very grateful for the care she provided to our beloves mother."
