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

As a dedicated and energetic childcare professional, I bring a lifelong passion for nurturing children’s growth and development through active, engaging, supportive care.
My priority is always the health and safety of the children I am caring for, but I also strongly believe in the importance of fun, creativity, and instilling a love of lifelong learning. I am especially passionate about helping children build healthy habits and life skills. Personally, I prioritize limiting screen time (I do not use social media) and prefer reading, music, arts/crafts, puzzles and screen free games. As an animal lover, I find incorporating animals into caregiving when possible, offers valuable lessons in empathy and compassion.
It is rewarding to support families, giving parents peace of mind and foster a positive, enriching environments where children can thrive creatively, physically, emotionally, and cognitively.

A little bit about me

I swam NCAA in college and I am lifeguard and WSI trained. I have taught many children to swim and I have over 30 years of experience with children of all ages. I have worked with sets of multiples, children with down syndrome and taught religion to children with special needs for years. I have worked with children who have ADHD, ADD, ASD, muscular dystrophy and Sensory Integration Dysfunction. I believe children are children no matter the label. Currently a mom of three awesome boys ages 5, 8 and 10. I love keeping children entertained with creativity and am not big on television, but an occasionaly movie is ok. I think creativity and outdoor activities are so important and I am very hands on. I will make sure your child has fun and learns too.  I studied primary education for two years as well, but finished my degree in Business. I really try to keep meals and snacks healthy and try to keep your children engaged. Let’s chat…
