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 love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids on and off since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have tutoring, cooking, cleaning, and entertaining the kids. I’ve even put kids to bed plenty of times!
I have been around pets since I was just a kid! I have a dog of my own, and I use to live with multiple dogs and cats! I will love them as if they were my own!
I have my own place, so cleaning is no problem. I know how messy houses can get, especially with kids. I will run any errands needed and do any cleaning needed!
