[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I missing something? A nanny makes between $20-25 an hour, so at minimum $800 a week if 40 hours. That's almost my whole salary as a teacher. I have a baby and an elementary kid and have no clue what we are doing for child care once schools open up.[/quote] What is your budget for daycare? Do you need a nanny for 40 hours? Can you do a "nanny share" and bring in a classmate of your elementary aged child to share costs with another local family? My friends who are teachers who did nanny's all did shares to split the costs and stacked their hours such that they did not need them for 40 hours. [1 parent started their day early so they were done early / other parent started day later] [/quote]
