Nannies through Agape Sitters & Nannies typically charge between $25 and $45+ per hour, depending on their experience, the number of children, and the specific responsibilities required.

Nanny Wages: The primary cost is the nanny’s hourly rate, which typically ranges from $25-$45+ per hour, depending on the nanny’s experience and responsibilities.

Placement Fee: We charge a one-time placement fee of 15% of the nanny’s gross annual salary, with a minimum of $3,450. This fee covers the comprehensive matching and screening process, ensuring your family finds the perfect nanny.

Payroll Taxes: Families are responsible for covering the employer portion of payroll taxes, including Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment taxes. These taxes generally add up to around 7.65% of the nanny’s wages.

A nanny primarily focuses on the care and development of your children.

They offer an all-in-one solution for families needing extra assistance with home management.

Most families provide their nannies with a comprehensive benefits package to ensure long-term satisfaction and commitment. Common benefits include:

• Paid Vacation: Typically, families offer 2-3 weeks of paid vacation per year.

• Paid Holidays: Nannies generally receive paid time off on all federal or bank-observed holidays.

• Paid Sick Time: Families usually offer 3-7 days of paid sick leave annually, allowing nannies to take care of their health without financial stress.

• Paid Personal Time: Many families also provide 2-5 days of paid personal time, giving nannies the flexibility to attend to personal matters when needed.

• Payment for Overnight Care and Travel: If your nanny is required to provide overnight care or travel with your family, they are typically compensated for this extra responsibility.

• Health Insurance Contribution: Many families contribute full or partial payment toward their nanny’s health insurance premium, ensuring they have access to necessary medical care.

• Year-End Bonus: It’s common for families to give their nanny a discretionary annual year-end bonus as a token of appreciation. This bonus usually ranges from 1-3 weeks of the nanny’s gross compensation.
