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

My name is Amy Amar, and I’m looking for a loving family that I can make their everyday life a little easier. I’ve always loved being around children and genuinely enjoy helping them learn, grow, and feel comfortable being themselves. I’m currently studying nursing at PHSC with the goal of working in the NICU, so caring for others is something I truly enjoy and want to make a part of my life. I’m patient, caring, responsible, and someone who takes the trust of a family very seriously. Outside of school and work, I love animals, watching nature documentaries, listening to music, and staying active. I’m also someone who enjoys learning new things and always trying to become a better version of myself. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family, build a relationship with your children, and be someone you can feel comfortable relying on!

A little bit about me

Hi!
My names Nicole, and I’m originally from Baltimore, MD. I’ve lived in Florida since 2010. I’m 25 years old, and have been working with young children since I was 15. I have always had a passion for working with children, and hope to continue an education in Early Childhood Care. I am the oldest sister of 5 younger siblings, so I have always felt a natural pull to be a leader in the household and set prime examples for the little eyes that were always looking up to me! I’ve had experience with children ranging from newborn to 10 years old, and consistently have taken care of a young boy who is on the spectrum for autism and requires special accommodations.
In my free time I love to read, take care of my plants, practice yoga (still a beginner!), and recently have been trying to have more fun in the kitchen!
