Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $17.73/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $17/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $16.80/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 arrangements look cheaper per hour because room and board are part of the package. 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
Hi! My name is Jonathan, and I'm a senior at the University of Colorado Boulder. I worked at Life Time Fitness for 3.5 years in the Kids Academy and as the Kids Camp Lead, caring for children from 3 months to 13 years old. I’ve worked with many kids at a time and of various ages, making me very comfortable handling multiple children at once. I’ve led everything from arts and crafts to sports activities, and I’ve also worked as a sports agility coach. As a former Division 1 track and field athlete, I bring a ton of energy, reliability, and punctuality to everything I do—especially when it comes to keeping kids active, engaged, and safe.
