Find an experienced nanny in Hobbs, IN

Q: How much should I expect to pay a nanny in Hobbs?

Nanny rates vary based on location, the nanny’s experience, and how many children need care. In most areas, nannies earn between $18–$30 per hour. Full-time, experienced nannies or those providing additional services (like tutoring or transportation) may charge more. On SitterTree, rates, expectations and schedules are set upfront for stress-free negotiations.

Q: What is the best way to find a nanny in Hobbs?

It's easy to find a nanny in Hobbs on platforms like SitterTree, which require ID verifications and background checks for nannies to stay active on the app. Look for nannies with relevant experience, and strong reviews from other parents. You can also meet candidates through local parenting networks or referrals, but it's important to conduct a reference check and background screening before making a decision.

Q: Is it cheaper to hire a nanny or daycare?

It depends on your family’s needs. Usually, daycare is more affordable for one child, but you might want to hire a nanny if you have multiple children or need flexible hours. Many parents choose nannies for personal attention, in-home convenience, and consistent care.

Q: What is the hourly rate for a nanny in Hobbs?

Most nannies earn $18–$30 per hour, though rates vary by city, experience, and responsibilities. Specialized care (for newborns, overnights, or travel) often comes with a higher rate. Checking average rates in your area is the best way to stay competitive and fair.

Q: What is the difference between a nanny and a babysitter in Hobbs?

A nanny provides regular, ongoing care—often weekly or full-time—and may help with routines, meals, school pickups, and child development. A babysitter usually provides occasional or short-term care, like date nights or weekends. Both roles are important, but you should make your choice based on the hours and consistency your family needs.

Q: How do you find a reliable nanny in Hobbs?

Look for consistency, communication, and great reviews. On SitterTree, every nanny must meet Quality Standards, including a minimum 4.5-star rating, 0 no-shows, and no more than 3 last-minute cancellations. Ratings are generated from real parent reviews, so you can get an accurate sense of each nanny's reliability.

Q: How to safely hire a nanny in Hobbs?

To make safe hiring decisions, review references, run a background check, and schedule an in-person or virtual interview. Ask about certifications like CPR and First Aid and previous experience. On SitterTree, nannies verify their identity and pass a background check, so you can focus on finding the right fit without worrying about what’s behind the profile.

I have worked at Grace Church Daycare and I also helped my sister to raise her children from toddlers to teenagers when she divorced. I am currently transitioning from my corporate job to a better work/life balance so that I can spend more quality time with my aging parent. I am always complimented for my calm demeanor with children.

Hi, I'm Sid! I'm a sophomore at Indiana University studying Finance, and I'm excited to offer reliable, engaged babysitting for your family. I have hands-on experience caring for up to 4 children at a time locally, so I'm comfortable managing groups, keeping kids entertained, and handling the unexpected with a calm, confident approach. My background as a math tutor also means I'm great at helping with homework and making learning fun for school-age kids. I'm responsible, punctual, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I'd love to meet your family and earn your trust. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi, my name is Ty Sanders, and I am a second-year college student hoping to become an elementary teacher! I have been babysitting within my family for close to 4 years. I recently started babysitting outside of my family just a few months ago. I am currently a substitute teacher, so I'm very used to working with children. I am high energy and I enjoy playing games with kids, and reading books! I tend to be able to make connections easily with children! I would love to babysit for you.
