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

Hello! I'm a warm, trustworthy, and communicative college student who has experience taking care of young ones of various ages and households. My childcare experience ranges from babysitting, to serving as a teaching assistant at a pre-school, to developing and implementing an arts curriculum for students while abroad on a student grant. I go to Dartmouth and am currently on a gap year, so I am primarily looking for part-time, flexible, and/or occasional employment. I hope to speak soon!
