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

Hello! My name is Nikelah, but I also go by Nikki for short. In Highschool, my whole 4 years I was in a program called early childhood, where we would read to children, put them to bed, take them outside and etc. As i’ve grown up, my family members has always felt comfortable enough to leave me with they’re little ones, so that made me love taking care of children- and know the basics. Taking children was always easy for me, it was never a job or a favor because I enjoyed it so much! I hope you take this into consideration and trust me with your little ones has well, so i can make them as well as the parents comfortable with me. I am also, 20 years old, I am starting college in January to become a travel lpn. Thank you so much!
