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.

Hi, my name is Jessica. I’m 28 years old and the second oldest of five children. Growing up, I began babysitting my younger siblings when I was 12, and over the years I also cared for children in my neighborhood and my cousins. These experiences helped me develop a genuine love for working with kids and the ability to handle a variety of ages and personalities with patience and care.
For the past nine years, I’ve worked as a cosmetologist, which has taught me strong communication skills, creativity, and the ability to connect with people. Now, I’m excited to make a change and pursue something I’ve always been passionate about—helping families by caring for their children.
I would love the opportunity to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your kids.
