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
Hi! My name is Senya, I am the oldest of five, and am a Singer/songwriter. I am a junior in high school as of May 28th, as well as a Shasta College student. I love kids and enjoy spending time with them. I have watched quite a few little gremlins and almost always manage to make a close connection with them. I can cook basic meals and would be glad to pick up and do household chores if needed. I am still in high school, so once I am back in school, I won't be able to work mornings, but since it will be break in a few days, I am free to watch the kid/kids whenever. My main goal is to ensure that you can do whatever it is that you need to do and take some time off for yourself. As of right now, I am not CPR certified, but I will be taking a medical course and a doctor's assistance course. I will send texts and photos regularly to keep you updated, so you don't have to worry about a thing. If it makes you feel better, my mother also works alongside Child Protective Services. 😁😁

Hello, my name is Jahme, (Jamie) . I was a teen mom . Had my first daughter when I was 15 . I went to a high school for teen moms . To go there I had to take parenting class a child daycare class..so I started young with have a life around kids. I have 3 daughters and when they started Kindergarten is when I became part of the school district. Weather it was volunteer for everything to becoming an employee of the district .so my kids would know I’m in it to win it with them..that’s how I became a one on one with students that were having a hard time . Then I became a class room assistant. I traveled through jobs with the district . My girls are all grown with my grandkids . I was missing out seeing them grow . So my husband and I moved to Redding from southern California to be near them. Been here a year and I’m looking for time to fill with things that I enjoy. I’m young 55 years old .

I’m Hannah. I’m 21 and I personally spend a lot of my time writing and listening to audio books and I have a big love for traveling which ideally want to do more of… that’s why I’m here lol. I’ve always loved interacting with children and think I’m great at it which comes from being so family oriented so I think this would be an enjoyable “second job.” I am not currently CPR certified but I am actively beginning the process. Thank you for considering:)
