FAQs for night child care near me in Portland, ME

If you need to find child care at night near you in Portland, ME, the average hourly pay rate for that type of caregiver on Care.com is $21.96. It’s worth noting that how much you’ll actually spend will depend on factors like how many children you have and how many years of experience the caregiver has.

If you need to find night time child care, it’s fair to keep safety top of mind. While all night child care providers on Care.com are asked to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck, we still strongly recommend you do your own research by checking references and doing an independent background check. You can also compare 92 reviews of night child caregivers near you in Portland, ME from other families when doing your research.

You can review 48 profiles of night caregivers near you in Portland, ME to find the care you need for your family.
