[quote=Anonymous]We live right outside the Beltway in Virginia and just hired an experienced nanny for one child at $20/hr. This is on the books, guaranteed 40 hours/week, minimum 2 paid weeks vacation, 1 week paid sick leave, and all the usual paid holidays. It wasn't that hard to find someone at that rate, and I think very highly of the nanny we will be partnering with. We did have to interview a few people first (including one who told us after a phone call and an in-person interview that our rate was too low for her which was annoying since we had shared it from the start. I don't know if she thought that we would rush to up our offer or what but that didn't happen, and it clearly didn't need to). Now if you are in DC proper the rate is almost certainly going to need to be higher. But in the suburbs? Yes, I think you can find someone who's both good and reliable for $20/hr for one kid.[/quote]
