Tips to find a great part-time nanny without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best part-time nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced part-time 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 part-time 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.

Hi! My name is Amilia Barth, and I am a college student with several years of experience working with children of different ages.

I’ve worked as a swim instructor, teaching kids ages 1–12, where I focused on safety, building confidence, and making learning fun. I also have hands-on babysitting experience, including caring for two infants, so I’m comfortable supporting routines, playtime, and basic care needs. In addition, I currently work in a front desk role, which has strengthened my communication and reliability.

I’m certified in CPR/First Aid for children and adults and have strong skills in supervision, organization, and creating a positive environment for kids. I was also my high school's swim team captain, so leadership and responsibility are a big part of who I am.

I’m looking for a nanny position this summer and would love the opportunity to support your family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
