Full-time, part-time, and live-in nanny rates
| Arrangement | Typical hours | Average rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full-time | 35–50 hrs/week | $22.40/hr | See full-time rates → |
| Part-time | 10–25 hrs/week | $22.25/hr | See part-time rates → |
| Live-in | Set by family | $20.91/hr | See live-in rates → |
Part-time and full-time hourly rates are similar here — short schedules don't always command a premium when full-time openings are easy to fill.
Live-in arrangements look cheaper per hour because room and board are part of the package. The trade-off is space — you'll need a private bedroom and ideally a separate bathroom for the nanny.

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
I worked as a lacrosse referee and coach starting at 16 and I've been babysitting since I was 14. Over my college career I have had lots of hands-on experiences in the classroom. Most recently I did an internship at St. Marks Episcopal PreK2-8th grade School. I primarily worked with 2-5 year olds in a PE class setting.
Most Sundays you will find me at my Church leading children's ministry working with mostly 5-7 year olds.
I love being active outdoors and I have so many games on deck to get your kids moving!
I also have a passion for arts and crafts! Once I know a bit more about your children I can create projects for us to do based on what they like most -favorite animals, characters, stories, places!
