What drives the price

Most Warren families pay somewhere in the $11–$20/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.


01

Experience

Experience is one of the biggest levers on a nanny's rate.
Nannies with 10+ years, or specialty skills like newborn care or multiple languages, typically command the highest hourly rates.

02

Number of kids

One child is the baseline. Each additional child usually adds $1–$2/hour. Twins and infants tend toward the high end.
+$1 to $2/hour per additional child
Hourly rate by number of kids
1 kid (baseline)$13.54
2 kids~$14.54
3+ kids~$15.54+

03

Hours & schedule

Standard weekday daytime hours are easiest to staff. Early mornings, evenings, weekends, and last-minute coverage all push rates up.
10–20%premium for off-hours coverage
Hourly rate adjustment by schedule
Weekday 9–5 (standard)
Evening/weekend+$2–4/hr
Last-minute+$3–5/hr

Also factor in: live-in vs. live-out · household duties beyond childcare · driving · cooking · travel.

Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates

ArrangementTypical hoursAverage rate
Full-time35–50 hrs/week$13.47/hr
Part-time10–25 hrs/week$16.30/hr

Part-time often runs higher per hour than full-time. Short, fragmented schedules are harder for nannies to fill alongside other jobs, so the per-hour rate compensates.

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

May peace be upon you,

My name is Salam Farhan and I am a former tutor, naturalist educator and Montessori preschool guide.

I have a passion for respectful childcare and supporting children on their journey to becoming self confident, compassionate, lifelong learners.

I have two children of my own (a 5 year old boy and a 1 year old girl) and my care style is inspired by the Montessori Method and Positive Discipline. These philosophies highlight independence, mutual respect and cultivation of each child's unique interests at any given time in their development through thoughtful, fun and interactive activity.

I am currently a stay at home parent, and I am gradually making my way back into the workforce in ways that meet my employers needs, as well as, mine and my family's needs. That being said, I look forward to working with families interested in creatively collaborating to effectively meet the needs of all involved.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Bella and I’m currently looking for a full time nannying position. I live near Warren but am willing to have a drive if it’s the right fit. I do have babysitting and nannying experience. About two years ago, I nannied for a 3 month old for about 4 months. I cared for him between 40-50 hours per week. Starting in February I started nannying for a 3 month old girl and currently still work for that family. They also have an 8 and 9 year old, but I’m mostly there for the currently now 8 months old. Although I love my current job and have created a strong bond with the family they can only offer me part time hours. I’m looking for anywhere between 30-45 hours weekly.
