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'm 16 looking for a job. I do online school and often finish before noon, sometimes later depending on the day. I'm free most days and am in medical classes. Unfortunately, I haven't got my first aid certificate, but I do know basic first aid and am learning to perform CPR. I've also taken basic child development classes. I'm adaptive and quick on my feet. Right now I have a 2-month-old kitten that's like a toddler, so I have experience with small animals and animals in general. I also love kids and want to work with them.
