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

Hello, my name is Hannah Schroeder. I am 23 years old and I am a mom to two amazing boys named Quincy and Ian. My son Ian is 3 and my son Quincy is 8 months old. I have 3 younger siblings that I helped my father raise. I have work with kids most of my life as I was apart of the Klamath Tribes Youth Council and as of now I am the advisor for the Klamath Tribes Youth council. I work with kids ages 12-24 years old but I can work with any age. I am looking for a job that can work with my sons being around as I don’t have anyone in the area of Medford to help watch them once I move over there. I have a husband named William Koon, we have been together for 7 years and he works in construction. We are moving to a new area for his job and I am looking for part time work to help us out while we get settled into our new home. I love to interact with my kids and teach them.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Jenni, and I am passionate about working with children and supporting their growth and development. As both a mother and a preschool teacher with over five years of professional experience, I bring not only a deep understanding of early childhood education but also the patience, care, and empathy that come from parenting myself.

In my years as a preschool teacher, I have gained hands-on experience creating engaging, age-appropriate activities, supporting social and emotional growth, and ensuring a safe and positive environment for children. I value building trusting relationships with both children and families, and I strive to create a space where children feel secure, nurtured, and excited to learn.

I would love the opportunity to bring my skills, experience, and genuine love for children into your family’s life and provide dependable, caring, and enriching childcare.
