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.

Hello, my name is Mackenzie but many people call me Mack or Kenzie! I’m 24 year old with an upbeat, outgoing personality. I have a passion for taking care of others it’s something that has always came so natural to me! Once upon a time I took a child development class back in 2017 and I’ve wanted to work with kids ever since!

I am super, super excited to have my first born niece due in July! I have type 1 diabetes along with celiac disease both diagnosed at the age 11. I wouldn’t define them as who I am but they definitely shaped me to be the women I am today! I love animals, being outside, and going on walks if the temperature is just right! If there’s any kind of adventure going on or planned for you can always count me in ! I’m beyond excited to meet the new little ones and become a part of your families journey!
