What drives the price

Most Oklahoma City families pay somewhere in the $9–$25/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.


01

Experience

Experience is one of the biggest levers on a part-time nanny's rate.
Nannies with 10+ years, or specialty skills like newborn care or multiple languages, typically command the highest hourly rates.

02

Number of kids

One child is the baseline. Each additional child usually adds $1–$2/hour. Twins and infants tend toward the high end.

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

My name is Dannie Hanson i am 20 years old I just recently got married to my amazing husband Daniel, and I’ve been looking for a job I know I’ll love! I love working with children! I babysat as my very first job and worked at an in home daycare when needed up until I went to college while working other jobs! I never want to be that babysitter that just makes sure the kids are doing what they’re supposed to and making sure the house and kids look spotless when mom and dad come home! I love being active with the children! I’ve always enjoyed playing outside doing crafts or even just sitting watching a movie or playing card games! I don’t want to just be their babysitter! I want them to have a friend! Someone they can always count on!

A little bit about me

I recently graduated with my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education, and I have worked in childcare for over a decade (longer if you include babysitting). My most recent positions were student teaching in pre-K and as a master teacher at a day care, where I primarily served ages 0-3 years old. Health and safety are my utmost priority. I love doing light cleaning if the kids are asleep, and pets are a bonus. I am truly passionate about childcare and early education, as I understand the impact it has on the rest of the child’s life. I also do my best to understand how scary it has to be to leave your baby in the hands of another. I am happy to send picture updates and do phone calls to help reassure you. I try to implement “Conscious Discipline." I try to understand why a child did something, how they are feeling, and how I can help them to regulate their behavior. I view transgressions as learning moments and, most importantly, as an effort to communicate a need.
