What drives the price

Most Atlanta families pay somewhere in the $7–$28/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.


01

Experience

Experience is one of the biggest levers on a part-time nanny's rate.
Nannies with 10+ years, or specialty skills like newborn care or multiple languages, typically command the highest hourly rates.

02

Number of kids

One child is the baseline. Each additional child usually adds $1–$2/hour. Twins and infants tend toward the high end.

Tips to find a great part-time nanny without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best part-time nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced part-time 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 part-time 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

My name is Olivia Holden, and I am 21 years old. I have always had a passion for working with children, it’s what makes me the happiest. I have four years of professional childcare experience and have worked with a variety of age groups, providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children to learn and grow. I am also the oldest of 7 children so nurturing, loving and teaching kids has always come very natural to me.After working in childcare for 4 years professionally overtime, I’ve realized that my passion is providing more individualized, one-on-one care. I also found that my director and I had different approaches when it came to teaching and caring for the children, which made me reflect on the type of environment where I can do my best work. That experience is what led me to want to purse nannying, and I’m excited about the opportunity to build a strong relationship with both the child and family.
