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.

"Madree is easy going with a warm, calm nature. She laughs a lot and loves children. I met Maddree when she was a nanny for a friend of mine. Maddree worked for my friend for many years and I always thought she was kind, caring and professional. Since she’s been available looking for a new family I’ve been able to hire her for babysitting here and there. Our kids love her and I like knowing they are in good hands."

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Yongbing or you can call me Sandy. I'm 26yrs old, caring for children has always been at the center of my life. Growing up, I was like a 2nd mom to my little sister. About 3 years ago, she moved in with me here in FL, and I've been her legal guardian ever since, at that time she was 10yrs old. Guiding her through school, HW, and daily life has been one of my biggest joys and greatest responsibilities. Alongside caring for her, I worked in a dental office while my husband was in dental hygiene school. Once he graduated and began working, I transitioned into teaching ESL online to children ages 3-12 in China. Now that he is established in his career, it's my turn to focus on dental school and continue pursuing my own dream. Through raising my sister and my professional experiences, I've developed strong caregiving skills, patience, and organization. Families can feel confident I'll treat their children with the same love, attention, and care I give my sister.
