Nannies provide professional, in-home childcare tailored to each family. In addition to high-quality care, nannies often prepare meals for the children, handle transportation to and from activities, and manage child-related household tasks.

Rates vary depending on the nanny’s qualifications, the number and ages of children, and job responsibilities.

All Thrive Nannies have at least 3 years of childcare experience and current CPR/First Aid training.

Recommended starting rate: $23/hour

Nanny rates vary based on their qualifications, the number and ages of the children requiring care, and other responsibilities of the job.

Special Needs Nannies offer the same core childcare as a traditional nanny, but with added experience and skills to support children with special needs.

These caregivers may have backgrounds as Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), or extensive experience in special education settings. We take care to match each nanny’s unique skill set with the needs of the family and child.

Rates vary depending on qualifications, the child’s needs, and scope of the role.

Household Manager Nanny

Some families need more than childcare—they need help running the household, too. Household Manager Nannies combine high-quality childcare with non-child-related tasks such as errands, meal planning, vendor coordination, and home organization.

Rates vary based on the scope of household duties, caregiver experience, and number/ages of children.

All Thrive Household Manager Nannies have at least 3 years of caregiving experience, and current CPR/First Aid training.

Nanny Share

A Nanny Share is a cost-effective option for two families to share one nanny—often with children close in age. This arrangement offers high-quality care with built-in social time for the children.

Typically, each family pays two-thirds of the nanny’s regular rate, and families work together to decide where care takes place.

Rates vary based on caregiver qualifications and job scope.

All Thrive Nannies in a share have at least 3 years of childcare experience, and current CPR/First Aid training.

Recommended starting base rate: $23/hour

In a Nanny Share:

• Each family pays: $15.33/hour

• Nanny receives: $30.66/hour
