What drives the price

Most Bountiful families pay somewhere in the $8–$22/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.

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 am 21 years old, studying Dietetics at USU, and I absolutely love kids! I’m looking for a summer nannying job from May to August! I took 2 child development classes in High-school, and I got to care for kids daily. I also babysat a lot when I was 12-16! I also teach tennis every summer to kids 5-17! All of these things have increased my love for children, they are so special and deserve to have fun in a safe environment!
Some more about me is I love tennis, rock climbing, pickleball, and spending time with my family and friends! I also just returned home from a 18 month mission for my church in Ecuador about 4 months ago! That’s enough about me,
I’d love to nanny for your kids! 😁
