[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny makes $26/hr in Bethesda for one child. After one year she asked me for a raise ($2/hr plus a few hundred a month to her health insurance). Her justification was, inflation and the fact she had been with us for one year. I would never ask my boss for more pay with that justification. Not even when I worked an hourly rate in retail would that request have gotten me more money. Is this just the way it is in the nanny world? Raises expected annually for no reason other than retention?[/quote] Just ask your pediatrician how much you’ll pay for therapy down the road for reckless, unstable care during early childhood. Continuity of care is ESSENTIAL. Sorry to be so blunt. If it’s only occasional part time care, it doesn’t matter so much.[/quote]
