[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you pay live in nannies less because you give them room and board?[/quote]

Room and board shouldn't be a considerable factor in pay. For example, if you would pay a live-out nanny $20/hour, paying less than $15 to a live-in wouldn't be worth it to me (I'm a nanny.) [/quote]

Why would anyone have a live-in nanny if you are paying almost full price? I am considering this, but I make $1500 renting my basement. I would want to pay at least $1000 less a nanny that lives with us and does not have to pay rent somewhere else.[/quote]

PP you're responding to. Then rent your basement. Parents often think nannies would pay rent close to or above what they feel their space would go in a rental market. I live with my sister and pay $700. If I'm going to be a live-in nanny, I will always still have expenses beyond rent and utilities. I still have to pay for health insurance, car insurance, life insurance, gas for my car, cell phone, a credit card, groceries, incidentals, and a monthly amount towards my savings. [/quote]
