Tips to find a great full-time nanny without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best full-time nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced full-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 full-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

With 8 years of childcare and management experience, I’m confident I am a perfect candidate to bring organization and overall peace of mind to all my potential employers.
In my current role i’m a Registered behavioral therapist and I provide therapy for children on the spectrum. I also provide babysitting services part time. These roles have required me to learn and adapt to many different parenting styles. I have also been in charge of providing stimulating activities for children to engage in based on their needs, with absolutely no screen time. Whether that’s an entire day planned of learning and practicing what we learned in our natural environment or a laid back teaching style. I have also been required to do laundry, cook, clean dishes and other household chores in my nanny position.
