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.

Meal prepping required? I LOVE cooking!
Pets at your household? No worries, I’m an animal enthusiast! Need errands done? I have my own car!
About me:
I’m originally from North Carolina but moved to Florida 4 years ago. I grew up with 3 other siblings and being the oldest made me the protective sister! Since I was young, a big role in my life was babysitting. I would babysit classes at my church ages 3-12. My club in high school (FCCLA) would go over to the middle schools and would help children with their homework or educate them on environmental studies. I have a little experience with OLDER speciality gifted children ages 12-16.
I have one year experience in childhood education. If any kiddos need help with homework, I’m your gal!
