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 have been looking after children for about 8 years. My family is big, due to the fact that my grandmother had 14 kids, so I was always babysitting someone. I have been officially babysitting for 6+ years and I love every minute of it. I have experience looking after multiple children at one time because I volunteer very frequently in the daycare center at my church. It is exciting and fun to teach kids all types of new things or do small tricks that make them smile. I hone basic skills, like cooking, and I am able to do light housekeeping work, even when not required to. I am very creative and educated (able to help with homework & classes) and I always try to set a good example for people around me. I take great pride in being an efficient, honest, good, and loving babysitter. I am also certified in first aid.
