Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $20.64/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $19.06/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $19.53/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
Hi everyone! ❤️ My name is Emily and I’ll be moving to the Henderson area soon! I’m looking to connect with families who may need a reliable, caring, and responsible babysitter or nanny.
I’ve been around kids for as long as I can remember! I grew up babysitting my younger siblings and helping watch friends’ children throughout high school. I also worked at Mayacama Golf Club in California, where I had the opportunity to babysit for over 10 families whose parents were members of the club.
I truly enjoy spending time with kids, keeping them entertained, helping with activities, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their parents are away. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your little ones, and I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can count on! 🥰
Please feel free to message me if you’re looking for childcare or know a family who might be interested! I’d be happy to share more about myself and my availability. 💕

A little bit about me
Hello!
A bit about me: I'm 27 years old. I'm CPR & First Aid Certified. I have two associate degrees and in my bachelors program. I did have a Nevada registry license when I was a toddler teacher. I have experience caring, tutoring, and teaching kids. I'm patient, calm, creative, and sweet. I'm very caring with children's emotions by promoting communication and boundaries.
For a year, I was a teacher for 2. 5 - 3. 5-year-olds. So, I'm familiar with children needing patience, time/space, comfort, and support. I do find it important to help encourage independence and individuality. My favorite activities with my students were science/exploration, arts/crafts, and sensory play.
Lastly, I follow parents' lead when enforcing household rules and communicate updates via their preferred method, be it text, phone call, or in person. I also will follow and expand upon any learning goals you would like your child to reach. I am extremely helpful and pretty flexible with my schedule. Thank you!
