A part-time nanny takes on the same responsibilities as a normal nanny, but on a part-time basis. Families who only need after school care may find that hiring a part-time nanny to pick their kids up from school and help with homework can give them the support they need without having to commit to a full time nanny. Some families may also only need a part-time nanny to provide them with support when they work if they only work part-time or have a unique schedule.
Any part-time nanny listed on Care.com had to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck. To give you some extra assurance surrounding safety, we strongly recommend that you run your own background check. It’s also a good idea to conduct interviews with part-time nanny candidates and to request references from past employers.
The average cost of hiring a part-time nanny on Care.com is $21.12, but this rate can vary greatly depending on a wide variety of factors. How many children the nanny will be caring for, where you live, and what types of responsibilities you want them to take on can all affect how much they charge.
All families have unique arrangements with their childcare providers surrounding pay and benefits, including paid holidays. When it comes to part-time nannies, many families choose to pay them for holidays that fall on days of the week when they would normally be working and give them the day off to enjoy with their own families.
