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 Ja’Nece, and I’m a sophomore in high school. I’ve always loved babies and little kids because they have such a special place in my heart. I love spending time with my baby cousins, whether we’re playing, watching movies, reading, or just hanging out. Seeing them smile always makes me happy.

I wanted to start babysitting because I can earn money while doing something I truly enjoy. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and always try my best to make kids feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I know how important it is for parents to trust the person watching their children, and I would treat your child with the same love and care I give my own family.

When I’m not with my family, I enjoy skating, spending time with animals, baking, and trying new things. I love helping others, and I would be excited to care for your little one and make sure they have a fun and safe time.
