FAQs

What does a nanny do for a newborn or infant?

A nanny cares for your baby in your home during the day: feeding, diapering, naps, play and getting outside, on a set weekly schedule, so you can work or rest. Many also do the baby's laundry, prepare bottles and the children's meals, and care for older siblings. Agree on the duties before the first day.

What's the difference between a nanny and a night nanny?

A nanny works during the day, often for months or years, so parents can go back to work. A night nanny or newborn care specialist works overnight in the first weeks or months after birth so parents can sleep. Many families hire a night nanny first and a nanny when parental leave ends.

Do I need a live-in or a live-out nanny?

A live-out nanny comes to your home each day and goes home at night, and most families hire this way. A live-in nanny lives with your family, usually with a private room, which can suit early starts, long days or changing hours. Either way, agree on hours, time off and duties in writing.

When should I start looking for a nanny?

Start a few months before you need care, so there is time to interview, check references and plan a paid trial day. Your request carries your start date, so the nannies who reply know when you need them.

How much does a nanny cost?

Nannies set their own rates, most often by the hour. Pay depends on where you live, the hours, how many children they care for, and whether the nanny lives in. You can share the pay you're offering in your request, and compare the rates nannies list on their Bornbir profiles.

How much does it cost to use Bornbir?

Bornbir is entirely free for new and expecting parents to use. Tell nannies near you about the job in your request and let the right ones come to you. You can then message them directly to learn more before you decide. Get started.
