How do nannies find jobs?

On Sittercity, nannies can browse jobs based on their zip code. They can craft their online resume by creating a detailed profile.

There are a lot of fun things that nannies do with kids. Both indoor and outdoor activities, including arts and crafts projects, baking, sports, and field trips.

How can nannies make extra money?

There are a few ways that nannies can make some extra income. They can be available for one-time sittings outside of their normal schedule for when families have date nights or meetings. They can also help to coordinate a nanny share with other families. In a nanny share, a nanny typically receives two-thirds of their hourly rate from each family, thereby increasing how much they make per hour.
