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 with both neurotypical to neurodivergent kids.
I’m calm natured, gentle, perceptive, and love being outside. I’m experienced and comfortable with older children, infants and toddlers, as well as providing developmentally appropriate opportunities for play and learning, and establishing firm, healthy and loving boundaries.
I have also been a caretaker for my own father and am comfortable with senior care. I can prepare meals and administer medication if needed, as well as taking care of other tasks and errands.
I’m fully vaccinated and boosted for Covid-19. Please feel free to reach out if I sound like I may be a good fit for your family’s needs, and I look forward to connecting with you!
I also speak French and Wolof intermediately!
