What drives the price

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

Hi my name is Jillian! I am 15 years old about to turn 16 and I am looking for a job that is going to help someone else as well as me. I have been babysitting almost my whole life from little siblings to people that just needed help. I can cook, clean, and anything else that is needed. I don't have my own guaranteed transportation, but hopefully once I get a job it won't be long before I get a car and my license. But I should be able to ride the bus to wherever I need to go. I hope whoever reads this has a wonderful day and considers hiring me.
