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 families! I’m Liaa. With 2 years of paid childcare experience and another 2 years of unpaid experience, caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. As the big sister who helped raise my younger brother while my mom worked hard to support us, I learned early on how to be patient, responsible, and nurturing.
I’ve also worked as a lead toddler teacher at a 24-hour childcare center, which taught me the importance of flexibility, structure, and creating a safe, fun environment for little ones. I truly enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported—whether that’s through daily routines, creative activities, or simple moments of encouragement.
I’m currently a college student majoring in Legal Studies, and I also work as a K–12 tutor, so I’m more than happy to help with homework or educational support.
I’d love the chance to get to know your family and provide the reliable, caring help you’re looking for! Let’s connect!
