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
Working with children has truly become my passion. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can explore, be curious, and feel loved. Watching their personalities bloom is one of my favorite parts of what I do!
I’m also pursuing a career in elementary education because I love helping children learn and develop from their earliest years. In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with family and friends, and continuing to learn more about child development.
I’d love the chance to bring my care, patience, and positive energy to your family! 💛
