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 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.

I am British and moved to USA in 1998. I worked for many years for the British Royal Mint until my family relocated here. I have been the main babysitter/ full time nanny for my three grandsons for seven years
Two are in school full time and I just have the two year old now part time as my daughter works nights so looking to take care of another wee one whilst I’m looking after my grandson
We love to sing and nursery rhyme time is our favourite.
I would prefer to look after your wee one in my home and have fully insured car with car seats , no pets and I’m a great cook so this grandkids love it
