What drives the price
Most Norcross families pay somewhere in the $7–$23/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.
Experience
Number of kids
| 1 kid (baseline) | $16.19 |
|---|---|

Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $17.36/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $15.97/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $16.26/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.

A little bit about me
I believe in open communication with parents and regularly provide updates on their child's day. I am comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents, ensuring consistency and a structured environment for the child.
My approach to childcare involves a mix of outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games that stimulate young minds. I am also a skilled swimmer and would be delighted to teach swimming to your child if you wish.
I am available to care for one child and am happy to assist with tasks like homework , meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision.

I speak Spanish and I’m learning English day by day, I’m hoping to speak fluently real soon!
My responsibilities include feeding (I always give them what their parents allow), crafts, tutoring, and I even teach them to walk (if they’re too little to know), paint and play the games they like.
