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
Hi! I'm a warm, playful sitter with 2 years of childcare experience, CPR and First Aid certified, and genuinely love spending time with kids. Whether it's building blanket forts, helping with homework, or just being a steady, fun presence, I bring patience and energy to every visit.
Beyond watching the kids, I'm happy to help out around the house too, light tidying, dishes, and prepping a simple meal for the little ones (or even for the family if that's helpful). My goal is to make your evening or day easier, not just to keep an eye on the kids.
References available upon request. Looking forward to meeting your family!

A little bit about me
I’m a responsible, patient, and dependable person who takes pride in being someone families can trust. I’ve helped care for my younger siblings, now 7 and 4, since they were babies, including daily routines, homework, and creating a safe, supportive environment. I’ve also babysat a toddler and an infant at the same time, which strengthened my ability to multitask and stay calm under pressure.
I’m currently in college working toward becoming a surgeon, which reflects my discipline and long-term commitment to my goals. I was also a lifeguard for two years, where I learned to stay alert, handle responsibility, and prioritize safety at all times. I bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and genuine care into everything I do.
