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
My schedule is quite flexible — whether you need a reliable sitter for date night, a self-care day, or more consistent help, I’m happy to be there. I’m comfortable with a variety of ages and can also assist with light household tasks, meals, or homework help if needed.
A little about me: I currently live in Oakland county, right on the Bloomfield border near Telegraph. I was born in Grand Blanc, Michigan, raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, and moved back to Michigan a few years ago. I’m very patient and nurturing. I enjoy creative activities like arts & crafts, reading, and poetry.
I look forward to connecting and hopefully being a great fit for your family!
