What drives the price

Most Georgetown families pay somewhere in the $14–$28/hour range. Where a given family lands depends on a handful of factors. Three of them drive most of the spread.


01

Experience

Experience is one of the biggest levers on a nanny's rate.
Nannies with 10+ years, or specialty skills like newborn care or multiple languages, typically command the highest hourly rates.

02

Number of kids

One child is the baseline. Each additional child usually adds $1–$2/hour. Twins and infants tend toward the high end.

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 am from Peru and I speak Spanish as my first language. I have experience and many years dedicated to taking care of children, mostly from 0 to 4 years of age, in addition to being a mother of two children and two beautiful grandchildren :) I really like teaching the children that I take care of, numbers, colors, and the names of things in Spanish. Learning another language from a young age will open their minds much more in addition to being very fun with my flashcards.

Hi, I'm Annie! I am 58 years old, I am the mother of two children and the grandmother of a sweet boy. I am from Peru and I speak Spanish as my first language. I love babies playing with them, walking to the park, teaching them the numbers, the ABC, and the colors in Spanish because it is very interesting for them to open their minds to another language, motivating them is very important for their growth and development.
