Full-time, part-time, and live-in babysitter rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $15.15/hr | |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $14.30/hr | |
| Live-in | Set by family | $14.51/hr |
Part-time runs slightly lower per hour than full-time here, which often means strong full-time demand supports higher rates for committed schedules.
Live-in rates are close to live-out here — but the package usually still includes room and board, so the all-in cost can be lower than it appears. The trade-off is space — you'll need a private bedroom and ideally a separate bathroom for the babysitter.

Tips to find a great babysitter without overpaying
- Be flexible on experience. Some of the best babysitters on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced babysitters 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 babysitters 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’m from Eastman, GA, and I currently attend Fort Valley State University as an Elementary/Special Education major. I was recently inducted into the education program a year early due to my academic excellence, and I’m excited to continue growing in the field.
Because I live in Eastman and attend school in Fort Valley, I’m available to babysit in both areas as well as nearby cities. I’m hoping to earn extra money for my needs and wants while I’m away at school, and I would love the opportunity to provide safe, caring, and dependable childcare for your family.
