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’m especially comfortable caring for toddlers, school-age children, and teens, and I’m happy to help with things like playtime, meals and snacks, homework, school pickups, activities, and keeping routines on track. I’m also open to light household or family-assistant tasks depending on the family’s needs.
I’m currently looking for a part-time or full-time position with a kind, communicative family and would love to find a great long-term fit! I also love pets!
