Tips to find a great child care provider without overpaying

  • Be flexible on experience. Some of the best child care on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced child care 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 child care 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 Adison but I also go by Adi. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable person who truly enjoys working with children and helping them learn and grow in a safe and positive environment.

I’m currently expecting a baby myself, which has made me even more passionate about childcare and learning about child development, especially with infants and young children. I love spending time with kids through play, reading, creative activities, and helping them stay on their routines.

I have strong communication skills, I’m responsible, and I always make safety my top priority. I’m also happy to help with things like preparing simple meals, light cleaning related to the children, homework help, and keeping things organized.

My goal is to make sure children feel safe, happy, and cared for while also giving parents peace of mind when they’re away. I would love the opportunity to connect with a great family and help care for their little ones!

A little bit about me

My name is Markisha, and I have a strong passion for working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged learners. With years of experience as both a teacher and a nanny, I’ve built meaningful relationships with children and families by creating safe, caring, and engaging environments. I am currently pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education at Valdosta State University, with the goal of becoming a certified teacher.

I especially enjoy supporting children’s growth through structured lessons, play-based learning, and activities that spark curiosity and joy. My experience teaching Pre-K has taught me to design lesson plans that balance group learning with individual support, while nannying has allowed me to provide consistent daily care and nurturing routines. Families value my patience, professionalism, and ability to meet each child’s unique needs.

Above all,I believe in fostering a warm, positive atmosphere where children feel supported, valued, and encouraged

Hi! I’m Connelly, a rising senior and college volleyball player at Savannah State University. I have been nannying since high school and absolutely adore children. I’m a very hands-on sitter who loves everything from creative craft projects to making dinner fun and engaging for kids!
My background has prepared me to be a reliable and high-energy caregiver. Between my experience on the volleyball court and my leadership role with a non-profit that provides a free week of camp for children whose parents are affected by cancer, I am an expert at multi-tasking and managing busy environments. I am very comfortable watching multiple children at once and stay calm under pressure.
I am CPR certified and have completed CNA classes, so safety is always my top priority. I am home for the summer and have a very flexible schedule, including early mornings and late nights. I am reliable, energetic, and ready to help your family have a great summer. I look forward to meeting you
