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
Growing up with five younger siblings, I’ve spent plenty of time babysitting and helping out with kids of all ages. Throughout high school, I also babysat for other families in my community, which taught me how to be responsible, patient, and creative with activities. I love making kids laugh, play, and enjoy their time — whether that’s through games, crafts, or just hanging out.

A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Kylie! I have a strong background in childcare with experience in babysitting, nannying, and preschool education. My journey in this field began in high school through an early childhood education course, where I earned my CDA, as well as CPR and First Aid certifications. I started nannying last year and quickly discovered how much I love working closely with families.
Most recently, I cared for a wonderful family who, unfortunately, relocated out of state. I’m now looking to build a connection with a new family in need of a caring, reliable nanny.
I’m based in Clearwater, FL, and currently available Monday through Friday. Starting in August, my availability will shift to part-time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays as I continue my bachelor’s degree at the University of South Florida.
I’m dependable, positive, and easygoing. I’m happy to support your family in any way possible!
