To find a weekend nanny near you in Portland, CT, you can search through 1 weekend nanny profiles to learn more about their hourly rates and to check out reviews from families who worked with them in the past.

How much it costs to hire a weekend nanny near you in Portland, CT depends on a few factors. To start, it will cost much more to hire a nanny for a whole weekend than to hire one for a few hours, so it can be helpful to plan your budget around how much care you need for a weekend—especially if you want them to spend the night.

When you hire a nanny on weekends, you can ask them to tackle a variety of different responsibilities.

All weekend nannies near you in Portland, CT found on Care.com are asked to complete a CareCheck, which is an annual background check.
