[quote=Anonymous]OP, your nanny is currently paid $26/hour? Is she due for a yearly raise as well as a 3rd child raise?

With regards to the naysayers, nannies manage toddler two new and a newborn fairly often. If your nanny feels excited about this change and both families feel she is competent to manage 3 children, go for it! If the share has worked well so far, don’t assume you have to break it up.

Regarding rates: have both sets of parents sat down for an open and honest conversation about what the single child family expects to pay once the baby joins the share? Without that discussion, you don’t know if the share can continue. I’d find it reasonable to have that family either pay $1-2 less or keep their rate the same. I think your family needs to pay an additional $4/hour, taking the nanny’s overall rate to $30/hour. If she is due for a yearly raise, I’d suggest the other family pay $14/hour and your family pay $18/hour, taking the overall rate to $32/hour.

Good luck negotiating all of these changes![/quote]
