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.

Provo, UT

A little bit about me

I'm the oldest of 7 and I've been taking babysitting jobs since I was about 13. I was a full-time nanny for 2+ years for a family of 10 before leaving to serve an LDS mission. They had kids from ages 0-13 so I got to spend time doing homework with them, helping them do chores, driving the kids to different sports and dance practices, meal prepping, and keeping consistent nap schedules for the littles. When I got home from my mission, I started working as a CNA and got my CPR and BLS certification. But I just got married last month and moved away from my last CNA jobs so now I'm looking to nanny again! I'm in school right now during the mornings but I'm free in the afternoons and flexible with my evenings. I'm looking for part-time work. Something like 3-4 days in a week.
