Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $20.18/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $18.58/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $18.81/hr | See live-in rates → |
Part-time runs slightly lower per hour than full-time here, which often means strong full-time demand supports higher rates for committed schedules.
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.

I’m a part-time college student with a lot of hands-on experience caring for kids, especially between the ages of 4 and 12. Growing up in a big family with 6 siblings taught me how to stay organized, patient, and creative. I’m great with homework help, keeping kids engaged, and bringing a mix of fun and structure to their day. Happy to help with light housework or meal prep when needed.

Hi! My name is Tess and I’m based in the Winter Park/Baldwin Park/Audubon Park areas! I recently moved back to Orlando from Gainesville where I completed my first semester of nursing school prerequisites and will continue this August at Valencia! I have 5 years of childcare experience starting my summer going into sophomore year as a camp counselor at an art camp for volunteer hours. That job lead me to becoming an assistant art teacher over the school years and I did babysitting on the side. While I was a student in Gainesville I was also an aftercare assistant teacher at a Montessori school. I have experience with ages 1-12. I am CPR certified, BLS certified and Infant/Child/Adult first aid certified. I have reliable transportation and open availability during the summer. I would love to connect with some families to be a helping hand!

Hi! My name is Isabella, and I’m currently going into my second year at Seminole State College, working toward my Business degree. I have always loved working with kids and have a few years of experience doing just that! I worked at a Kumon tutoring center for two years, helping kids of all ages excel in their academics, and I’ve also worked as a nanny in the past, which I absolutely loved. I loved the special connections I had with the kids I worked with and am hoping to find a new family where I can help, care for, and support their children as they grow and learn.
