[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty much any nanny with the qualifications you described could land a job at $30hr for 50 hours per week right now. That comes to $85,800 per year. I agree you have to consider your competition. Here are some ideas

-Raise your rate
-Offer a flexible schedule (let candidate choose the hours)
-Throw every perk you can out there- can they be added to your gym membership, phone plan, Netflix account, etc etc
-Lower your qualifications (or be flexible on them)

Just on schedule alone you are going to eliminate:
-Anyone with kids
-Most with grandkids
-Anyone that likes to go out on Fri or Sat nights
-Anyone that likes to spend weekends away
-Anyone that has a significant other they primarily see on weekends
-Anyone that likes to travel[/quote]

You are also going to eliminate anyone that goes to church because you need a nanny Sunday morning [/quote]

Many churches have Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon/early evening services.[/quote]

I am Protestant and I know of no protestant churches with services on Saturday evening.  Jewish services are on Saturday but I suspect there are very few Jewish nannies.[/quote]
