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.

My name is CeCe Shubert. I am 17 years old with around 7 years of babysitting experience. I love working with kids of all ages and try to be engaged with them as much as both the child and family are comfortable with. I will always clean up after myself and try to keep homes looking the same if not better than they did before I arrived. At the time of writing this (1/10/24) I am still in high school but graduating on the 31st of May 2024. Thank you for your time reading this! Please message if you feel like my help would work for you and your family!
