How much do Bay Area nannies make per hour?

Nannies in the Bay Area usually make anywhere from $13-20+ per hour. For highly qualified, fully screened Bay SuperSitters nannies, expect rates of $14-16+/hour for one child, $15-17+/hour for 2 children, $16-18+/hour for three, etc.  (these rates reflect take home pay).  Rates are negotiable directly between the parent and the nannies, but nanny jobs offering less than $13/hour take home pay will not be accepted.

What is Trustline?

All Bay SuperSitters nannies are Trustlined upon being hired for part time or full time nanny placement.  You can learn more about Trustline at www.trustline.org, or by calling 1-800-822-8490.
