| I have two ES aged kids and I’ve found a ES teacher looking for work as a summer nanny. What would you offer per hour? She said she can help them with their summer work. She has her own car. |

| You should ask her her rate like you would any other professional. I imagine the rate for an adult teacher would be higher than a college kid home from school. |

| You pay her what she asks, OP. You got a great nanny. |

| She asked me what I thought was fair. I have no clue. |

| $20/hr plus mileage |

That’s way too low! I would start at $25 an hour. You could lose her to someone else willing to pay $30 for two kids. |

| I hired a 19 year old college student to watch one child and am paying $20/hour. In your situation I would pay more. But it's weird she doesn't set her own rate! |

| OP here. She usually teaches summer school but she said she doesn’t want to do it online this summer. She said she really doesn’t know what the going rate is. |

When I was a nanny, without a teaching degree, 5 years ago, my rate was $20/hour. However I cared for 2 toddlers. I would say something between $20 and $25/hr is probably appropriate. |

| For a certified teacher? $25/hr minimum plus mileage reimbursement at the federal rate |

| The numbers on DCUM are higher than what people I know pay IRL. |

I pay $30/hour for a nanny who regularly works as a theater professor.
My rate for a college kid is $25/hour. |

| Where are you, OP? I have found this differs even neighborhood to neighborhood. |
