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 am a 17-year-old high school senior with paid experience babysitting for both family and family friends. I’ve also worked in the fast food industry, where I gained hands-on skills in cooking, cleaning, organizing, and delivering excellent customer service. I’m a fun, outgoing, and bubbly person who brings creativity and energy to everything I do. I absolutely love being outdoors, going on little adventures around town, and spending time with animals and children. Caring for others is something I’m truly passionate about, and I always do my best to make people feel supported and happy.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Rebekah. For the past couple years I have been working in an infant toddler class at a local child development center. I love what I do but I am leaning more towards becoming a nanny. I love eating children learn and develop. I love to be able to watch them grow and figure things out on their own. I am a big believer in learning through play. I love to play with all children. I am CPR and first aid certified and I used to be a medical assistant before Covid so I have that training as well. If you have any questions please feel free to ask!
