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.

A little bit about me

I’ve worked around and with children all throughout high school as well as now! During high school for 3 years I developed the skills and understandings of the development and needs/ skills of children. I’ve went on national tournaments showcasing my learnings within that I won grants to create and build a safe spacing for children around schools to have “calming corners” to release stress. Among graduating I’m currently working at a private school with older children from the ages of 11. Before that, I’ve worked with 1 year olds as well as ranging from 1-4 as well as including 6 month olds. I’m CPR and AED certified and have all my requirements to work with children Including my fingerprint card. Despite my skills I whole heartedly love working and spending time with children all ages. I find it a gift to watch and teach kids grow up. Spending time and learning from them is something very special to me and creating a safe loving environment is also really important to me as well.
