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, my name is Shyann, and I’m a caring, reliable, and patient nanny with a genuine passion for working with children. I have hands-on experience providing daily care, maintaining routines, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel secure and supported. I’m very attentive, organized, and calm under pressure, which helps me anticipate children’s needs and handle day-to-day responsibilities with care and confidence.
I truly enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate activities, learning through play, assisting with homework when needed, and supporting their emotional and social development. I believe in creating a balance of structure and fun, allowing children to feel comfortable being themselves while still maintaining consistency. I value open communication with parents and take pride in being someone families can trust and rely on.
