[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$550 a week or a month?  You posted both.

I'd check references really carefully.  But I would do that anyway.  It could be great, but I would worry a little that she's doing this because she thinks it's fun, or because she's focused on the benefit to her own child, and that she might quit abruptly if she realizes it isn't that fun to have 2, or that she might prioritize her daughter over your child.

I imagine its a month because $18/hr for someone to watch your kid and theirs doesn't sound so low that people would be telling OP its too good to be true[/quote]

No, a week.  Which believe it or not is several hundred dollars cheaper than most decent daycares locally (that don’t have openings anyways).

We didn’t speak to a single nanny offering less than $20-25 an hour and I know many see the perks of having the child in your home but it has not worked for me.  I have friends with nannies paying four figured a week easily. [/quote]

But this isn't a nanny. She is a SAHM home with her own kid and you are bringing your kid over just three days per week. I would not pay much more than what she is offering. [/quote]
