| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $18.48/hr | See full-time rates → |

| Live-in | Set by family | $18.84/hr | See live-in rates → |
Part-time and full-time hourly rates are similar here — short schedules don't always command a premium when full-time openings are easy to fill.
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
It started out as babysitting for people from my church, sometimes for some friends of the family, I did it like that for a while. then I started working for a babysitting and nanny agency, i also did that for a while but then after covid hit I transferred to daycares. I worked for start child academy and ladybird academy. I love working with kids, sometimes if not most of the times it makes me feel like I am a mother to a bunch of cute tiny little human :) I love watching them grow, which i think is amazing, from watching them not being able to say mommy and daddy the right way to making cute little sentences is so cute, from watching them not being able to crwal to them running is so amazing. working with kids make me happy i love my job.
waking up in the morning knowing I genuinely love going to work because i love my job is an important thing to me.
