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

Hello, my name is Sydney!

I am a creative, enthusiastic, and dedicated individual with a passion for child care and early childhood development. With over three years of paid child care experience and many more years of babysitting and mentoring young children. I worked in a daycare for just shy of 2 years and have been a nanny for the past year! My current nanny family is moving out of state so looking for something else! I take pride in fostering a nurturing and engaging environment. I love watching children learn and grow, helping to shape young minds through patience, creativity, and encouragement.

Outside of child care, I enjoy spending time outdoors, painting, sewing, and baking. Organization and productivity are important to me, and I thrive in structured yet flexible environments. I am also an animal lover and bring a positive, optimistic approach to everything I do. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and educational space where children feel supported and inspired.
