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! I'm Madison or Madi and I'm looking for a part or full-time position! I have experience with all ages. I've worked in daycares from ages infant to kindergarten age and I've had two in-home nannying positions as well. The most recent position a couple years ago was from here on nannylane! That job was lovely, I only left due to needing more hours, so I would love to find a family like that again. One of those children was 6 mo, one was 13. I've also led youth groups and college age groups. So I definitely have experience with all ages! :) I currently work as a social media manager. Also open to house management/assistant roles or a mix! I have done that as well. One thing to note is that though I have transportation and have done school pick-ups, etc, my car is getting older and is quite small, so if you are needing drop-offs/pick-ups, it may be best if you have a car I could use. I'm a Christian! Please reach out with any questions. :D

Hey I am Serena, 24, and I truly have such a passion for working with kids. I grew up being a natural caregiver for my sisters, and working at my church, daycares, and schools with the children there. It’s always been so fulfilling for me to be a person they can learn with, can grow with and become the happiest, smartest, funnest version of themselves, and for them to feel safe and comforted always. As well as helping the parents with anything they need to make their life easier!
