Find an experienced nanny in Edgerton, KS

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

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 Edgerton?

It's easy to find a nanny in Edgerton 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 Edgerton?

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 Edgerton?

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 Edgerton?

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 Edgerton?

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 approximately 3 years of hands-on childcare experience working with children from 6 weeks old through 5 years old. I have worked as a Lead Teacher in daycare settings, including the Baby Room, Toddler 1, Toddler 2, Preschool, and Pre-K classrooms. For the past two years, I have worked at Stepping Above Academy, primarily as a Lead Teacher in the Baby Room, caring for infants starting at 6 weeks old and providing daily routines, sensory activities, developmental support, and a safe and nurturing environment. I have also gained experience working with the other age groups through Pre-K. I also worked for 4 months as a Lead Teacher in Toddler 1 at Kiddee College, where I planned activities and supported language, motor, and social development. I do not have a specific favorite age because I genuinely enjoy working with all age groups. I am comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and young children. I also have personal hands-on experience supporting my 6-year-old son, who has autism. This has given me valuable experience with communication, routines, behavior support, patience, and adapting activities to a child’s individual needs. I have completed multiple early childhood education trainings and have pediatric CPR and First Aid certification. Foundations for Safe and Healthy Early Care Facilities Module completed on 7/11/2024 Family Engagement in Early Care and Education completed on 8/29/2024 Building Skills in Two Languages completed on 9/26/2024 Managing Transitions In the Early Childhood Setting completed on 11/12/2024

Hi, my name is Hezekiah Kirkwood. I have several years of hands-on experience working with children in both daycare and before- and after-school settings. I previously worked as a childcare worker at Creative World in Belton and as a before- and after-school teacher with LINC in Kansas City, where I supported children of different age groups throughout the day. Alongside my childcare experience, I’ve graduated and received my Bachelor's of Science degree in Human Science with an emphasis in Nutrition and Food Science, which has strengthened my understanding of child wellness and development. Overall, I bring patience, strong communication skills, and a genuine passion for working with children.
