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 am kind, caring, polite, and patient. I love assisting people it comes naturally to me. Probably my prolonged experience in Yoga and Meditation has helped me growing a nurturing personality. I can teach children and help them in their education. I have done 3 master degrees and I have teaching experience, I can take them to park for playing, pick and drop from school and help elderly in having a helping companion, patient listener. The only problem I have is I have a dog and cat phobia so I can't work in a place where pets are around. I'm comfortable with birds, butterflies, and fishes as pets.
