About Part Time Nanny
Part Time Nanny runs a mobile app and website that connect Houston families with part-time and backup nannies. Families post the hours they need or request a specific nanny. They can read each nanny's bio, references and reviews from earlier bookings. Booking and payment happen in the app, and families can book one-time, recurring or emergency backup care. Nannies join free and keep their full rate. The company takes no cut of their pay.
Nannies upload a government ID for staff to review. They cannot take local bookings until that review is done. Nannies are also searched against sex-offender registries through Family Watchdog and give at least two references, which the team texts. Nannies can buy A-Team verification for $34.99, which adds a Checkr background check. The app is live on iPhone and Android. Founder Amanda Jacobi is a Houston mother who built the service after needing flexible care herself. She is the company's president and chief executive officer, and a director.

Why Investors Backed Part Time Nanny
Part Time Nanny is a Houston app where families find and book nannies for part-time and backup care. It is aimed at parents who need a few hours of help, such as school pickup or date nights, rather than a full-time hire. Nannies join free and keep their full rate, while families choose a free, monthly or annual plan. Founder Amanda Jacobi started it after needing flexible childcare for her own family.
The problem it targets
Founder Amanda Jacobi began with her own need. She wanted help for school pickup and a few afternoons a week, not a full-time nanny. Her view is that traditional nanny agencies are often built around full-time placements and leave gaps for modern families. The use cases the site lists include date-night, backup, seasonal and occasional care. A Houston parent quoted on the site says she is worn down from constantly interviewing candidates.
What the product does
Families post the hours they need, browse nannies near them, and book on their schedule. The paid plans include messaging, video interviews and paid trial days. The app tracks hours and handles daily or weekly payment. Before a nanny can take a local booking, staff review a government ID. Nannies are also searched against sex-offender registries and give at least two references. These checks search available records and cannot catch everything, so parents are urged to interview a nanny and do a paid trial day.
Progress so far
The app is live on iPhone and Android, and the service is aimed at Houston families and nannies. Plans are a free tier, PTN+ at $19.99 a month, and The Mother Lode at $199 a year. Nannies can add A-Team verification for $34.99, which includes a Checkr background check. One backup-care customer, Kristin L., says she booked a sitter in about five minutes. Emergency backup care is not guaranteed to have a sitter at all times. The home page gives no user or booking counts.
