[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That makes $11 per child. Since you're adding one you should pay $22 and the other family should still pay $11 per hour for their child.[/quote]

So nanny will get $33 while two of the kids are in preschool? No way.

I would do $8 or $9 per kid, so $24 or $27 total. [/quote]

So you are suggestion that the nanny take on a 3rd child -- an infant, nonetheless, for an extra 80 bucks per week?![/quote]

OP here. Seeing the proposal - $27 minus $22 = $5x 40 hours is $200 per week.  We also do time and a half for any overtime. I think this is the ball park offer — to add about 50% of the hourly rate on top of her existing pay.  It also roughly corresponds to what we would pay for two kids at daycare... the toddler would be way cheaper, the infant more expensive, but the total about the same.

I think this is low, but I also think 2 toddlers plus an infant is a lot for one person FT. I don't know if I'd be thrilled if I were the other family in the share. Their child is going to get a lot less attention and they are essentially subsidizing your infant care.[/quote]
