Tips to find a great nanny without overpaying
- Be flexible on experience. Some of the best nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced 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 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
Hi! I'm Shanaya and I'd love to be considered as a sitter/nanny for you.
I have about four years of professional daycare experience and six years of babysitting experience. My responsibilities included changing diapers, preparing baby formula, monitoring playtime, naptime, and more for infants and children up to age 6. One of my favorite parts was the activity planning! (Creating Mother's Day cards has always been my favorite.)
I've worked in large groups, small groups, and have babysat 1 on 1 and I love doing it all. I look forward to meeting you!
(PS: I am happy to work with families with pets.)

As someone with two little brothers I absolutely love kids! My one younger brother who is 7 has autism and I love to see how he learns new things and accomplishes the goals set for him. I’m 18 years old. I have been to 6 countries and love different cultures and I love to talk to so many different people. I have babysat for family friends on many occasions and I loved taking care of every single one. I love scuba diving and reading! I’m planning on becoming a nurse in the future and going to college for that. I love to volunteer at my brothers school and work with the children there!
