[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you mention taxes to her? Sounds like she wants to be paid under the table. [/quote]
DP but no it doesn't. It sounds like that's the amount she needs to take home in her paycheck, you know, to make ends meet.[/quote]

Then nanny should be able to figure this out herself. [/quote]

Exactly. This take home pay business is not how real life works.

OP, how would you feel if she arranged her taxes to have far too much taken out so that she gets a very large refund and what you thought would cost $1,00/week ended up costing $1,200?  You can get an estimate of what would be withheld, generally 20-25% and offer a fair hourly rate based on that, but in absolutely no profession will you negotiate in terms net pay. [/quote]
A nanny's income tax refund does not change what the employer owes. SMH.

It's not advisable to negotiate on the net pay but what's the big deal if she asks? You can try to accommodate and just be up front that you wont be able to control the final dollar amount because of tax laws. Or just offer a figure you think is fair and call it a day. The range on this thread seems to be $600-$950.[/quote]
