Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $19.89/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $17.84/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $19.56/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 here run higher than live-out — uncommon, but typically reflects specialty demand for around-the-clock or live-in newborn care. 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 hold First Aid and CPR certifications, as well as an active NREMT certification, so your child's safety is always my top priority. I'm also in the process of getting my driver's license to make transportation even more convenient.
I've always had a genuine love for children, and growing up with many siblings has given me years of hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages. I'm patient, dependable, nurturing, and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel cared for. I would be honored to become a trusted part of your family's support system.
